This insolvent applied fora protecting order. His case
was heard in December, and on the opposition of a creditor

called on the creditor to ask him not to oppose him when
he applied for a protecting order, when he said he would
oppose unless he gave him a bill backed by a good name.
The creditor denied the allegation, saying that the insol-
vent said he came to propose terms, end the ereditor ad-
mitted that he said he would, unless some terms ware come
to, oppose on the nest occasion.

self out of court according to the practice of the wart, by
trying to get security for his debt.
