(orally). This was an application for a discharge in bankruptcy after the lapse of more than one year after the adjudication of bankruptcy. It is well settled that this may be granted.—that It rests in the sound discretion of the court to grane it or not, notwithstanding more than one year has elapsed since applicant was declared bankrupt. Debts were proved and assets were realized. The discharge is granted.
