United States Supreme Court
240 U.S. 617
Varner v. New Hampshire Savings Bank
Argued: March 8 and 9, 1916. --- Decided: April 3, 1916
This is a contest for priority between creditors of a bankrupt. Appellees claim under mortgages upon certain real estate in Wichita, alleged to have been recorded before building operations on the property were commenced. Appellants maintain construction began prior to recordation, and that they are secured by preferred mechanics' liens created by the Kansas statute. Disagreeing with the district court, but in accord with the referee's opinion, the circuit court of appeals (132 C. C. A. 631, 216 Fed. 721) held that no 'such work as amounted to the commencement of the building within the meaning of the Kansas statute' was performed prior to the time when the mortgages were placed on record, and 'that what was done was but a mere pretense at the commencement of a building, done to defeat bona fide prior liens.' And it accordingly adjudged the mortgage creditors entitled to priority.
The essential question presented is one of fact; and there is sharp dispute in the testimony. Substantial difficulties are disclosed, but, after considering the evidence, we think it sustains the conclusions reached by the Circuit Court of Appeals; and the judgment entered there is accordingly affirmed.

THE SEA-SONG OF GAFRAN.$^2$
Watch ye well! The moon is shrouded  On her bright throne; Storms are gathering, stars are clouded,  Waves make wild moan. 'Tis no night of hearth-fires glowing, And gay songs and wine-cups flowing; But of winds, in darkness blowing,  O'er seas unknown!
In the dwellings of our fathers,  Round the glad blaze, Now the festive circle gathers  With harps and lays; Now the rush-strewn halls are ringing, Steps are bounding, bards are singing, —Ay! the hour to all is bringing  Peace, joy, or praise.
Save to us, our night-watch keeping,  Storm-winds to brave, While the very sea-bird sleeping  Rests in its cave! Think of us when hearths are beaming, Think of us when mead is streaming, Ye, of whom our souls are dreaming  On the dark wave!

The court are unanimous in refusing the motion. The object of the section in the duty law is to secure the prompt collection of duties, indisputably ascertained. When there are errors in calculating the duties, and they are alleged on affidavits, the delay of one term is allowed. And where there is a real defence, an opportunity to obtain evidence by a continuance, according to the circumstances of the case, must be given. There cannot be a case of this description where the opportunity should be denied.
Mandamus refused, and the motion overruled.

What was said in Shelton v. The Collector, 5 Wall. 118, to the contrary of this is disapproved.
