The application for re-opening the Mansfield Union's audit of their accounts for the half year ending Michaelmas 1862, because of the alleged erroneous charges made to the accounts by the guardians, have been considered by the Board and the decisions of the Court of the Queen's Bench in Reg v Chiddingstone [Kent], [31 LJR n.s.
