Definition :

Other, in a charter-party, it was provided that the owners were liable to pay for 'port charges, pilotages, and other expenses at those ports'. The expression 'other expenses' must be construed ejusdem generis; so that the owners did not have to pay for coals which the charters by a previous clause have undertaken to provide and pay for, The Durham City, 58 LT 46.

Other, must mean 'some other person' than the trustee deceased or going abroad or retiring or refusing or becoming incapable to act and also other than a trustee making appointment, that is to say, other than the appointer himself because the general practice of the conveyances, the understanding of lawyers and the purposes of deeds like this are against the notion of executor or administrator of the last acting trustee of appointing himself, Skeats v. Evans, (1889) 42 Ch D 522.
