August 6 it was provided that all payments which had become due and payable before the date of that Proclamation or which would become due and payable on any day before September 4 in respect of any bill of exchange drawn before August 4, or in respect of any contract made before that time— that was to say, before August 4—should be deemed to be due and payable on a da}' one calendar month after the day on which the payment originally became due and payable. Then, by a Proclamation of September 3, the date of payment was extended by a month— to October 4. But there was nothing in the Proclamation of September 3 to alter the class of contracts, payment in respect of which was to be affected by the moratorium. The moratorium was not extended so as to apply to contracts made after August 4. Lord Justice Phillimore and Lord Justice Pickford delivered judgment to the same effect.
