COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
Before Mr. Comminnonerlioulbum.
C:EITION Aa TV toe FOUNIIS or SILUMONS AND ATTI-
DAVIT.—In the case of a summons served on Mr. C. Howard,
wine merchant, of Oreat Tower-street, at the instacce
of Mr. Underwood, Mr. Sturgeon contended that
the summate was bad, the de• ription of "wine mer-
chant" being omitted ; and this it had been sought to cure
by the service of a en cond summons in which the trade was
inserted. lie argued that, the first summons being bad, the
deft ct could not be remedied by the second.—Mr. Lawrence
contended that the second summons was good. It was a
parallel ease to that of two writs, where the second disconti-
nued the first. Besides, the first was only a copy, and not
the original summons.—Hi. Honour said he had no doubt as
to the suflicici.cy of the form of the hr-t summons; but it
appearing that it was nut the original there was en end of it;
and the second summons was no doubt good.—Mr.
Sturgeon took a further objection to the form
of the affidavit. The demand was for WI. 94. ffel., for
wine sold and fur an overdue bill drawn by the debtor, hut
no default MIMI stated. In " Buckstone v. Levy" (7 Bingham,
251.,, it had been held that an affidavit to hold the drawer of
a bill to bail mutt state that the bill had been accepted and
had not been paid.—Mr. Lawrence relied on the words of the
Bankruptcy Act, which merely required that the "nature of
the debt ahould be staled with certainty and precision."—fits
Honour decided that the affidavit was bad, and dismissed the
summons with costs.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.
IN nu SEDOWICK —HIKED 13sm.—This insolvent was
opposed by Mr Nicholls, for a creditor named Holt, and
supported by Mr. Sargood. In this caw some extraordinary
direlosures were made of hiring hail in Whitecross street
Prison. The insolvent had been a clerk in the Post office, and
lost his situation through some " bill transactions." He had
lately supported his lami.y by performing on the con-
certina. Dying in Vlihitecross-street Prison, he petitioned
this court, and was anxious to get out on bail. A person
named Smith suggested that bail could be procured, and
two persons, named Jones and Grimwood, were introduced
to him. Them two men made affi lavits, stating t y were
worth 4501. over their debts, and the insolvent admitted
that he had peid them 41. When they appeared to justify,
it was suspected that Orimwood was per-onated, and some
inquiry took place, the result of which was a full ii.vestiga-
lion. The insolvent was now heard, and the circumstauces
disclosed. Mr. Commissioner Harris declared that the matter
was of such public importance that it could not be passed
over.—The insolvent admitted that he had "bought " the
bail, and it was the intention of the court to ri mend him
under the discretionary clause.—Mr. Sargood at once pleaded
guilty, and urged that the insolvent was anxious to get out
ut prison, having a wife and three children to support ; he
was nut aware but that the bail could justify for the amount
they had alleged.—The man Jones, one of the hail, was
called up, and stated that he was worth 4501.—Orimwood
did not make his appoirance.—Mr. Commissioner Harris
asked Jones it he had returned his share of the M. as his
hire I—Jones said he was not " hired." He was paid fur
his" loss of time."—Mr. Commissioner Harris told him he
would shortly hear of a prosecution against him and the
other person who personated another party. The whole of
the case would he laid before the Attorney-Oeneral, and
there would no doubt be an indictment against them. Even-
tually, judgment was deferred until this dey ; and the court
allowed the insolvent to remain at liberty until then, on an
undertaking by his landlord that he abound appear to receive
the judgment of the taunt.
