BILLS OF REVIEW.—Continued.

2. If the new matter actually came to the knowledge of the party or
might have been known to him, by reasonably active diligence, so
long before the decree as to have enabled him to have had the mat-
ter put upon the record at the hearing, no bill of review will be
allowed. Ib.

3. Although the party, applying for a re-hearing, may himself have no
merits, yet if he shews, that the interests of innocent third persons,

hearing will be granted. Ib.
