COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—YESTERDAY.
- Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.
PETITION DIE MONIED.—S. W. Smith, a clergyman, late
of Erith, and now of Cloak-lane, City, came up for his in-
terim order. His debts are about 6,0001., and assets " none."
Mr. Buchanan, ft.r sixteen creditors, said that the insolvent
had represented that he had bought a living at Erith for
7,0001, upon the frith of which he obtained 1501., whereas
he had not bought any such living. This, Mr. Buchanan
would call a misrepresentation. The further ground of op.
position was, that within the last month, and in contem-
plation of insolvency, he (the insolvent) deposited plate and
other goods with a friend, upon the pretence of securing a
debt alleged to be due to that party, but in reality it was to
defraud the creditors of that to which they were justly en-
titled.—The insolvent, in examination by Mr. Buchanan,
admitted that he had deposited certain goods, not as security
for any debt, but merely because he had no secure place to
keep them. He had not handed these things over to the
official assignee, because when the party with whom the
goods were deposited found out that Smith was insolvent, he
would not give them up, claiming to have a lien on them for
a debt due.—The learned commissioner looked over the
schedule, and perceived that there was no mention of the
transaction now deposed to. He expressed an opinion that
the ease eould not go on. This property was not mentioned
in the schedule as available to the creditors, which it clearly
was.—Mr. Cooke then drew his Honour's attention to the
fact that the insolvent proposed to pay 1001, per annum for
the gradual liquidation of his debts, and take his protection
periodically, to secure its payment. —Mr. Buchanan said he
appeared for sixteen creditors, all of whom rejected this
offer with contempt, and it was only made to secure himself
protection.—Mr. Cooke said that as the creditors refused
this reasonable proposition, the result must he that Dr.
Smith would to the Insolvent Debtors' Cour., and then
be discharged, his creditors getting nothing.—Mr. Bu-
chanan: There would be exactly the same result, if this offer
were accepted.—His Honour said he had no power, as the
creditors refused the offer, and the petition was dismissed.
