Mr. Sargood opposed for the assignees ; Mr. Bagley
supported.
Prom an examination of Aaron Sender, one of the
bankrupts, it appeared that they began business nine or tee
years ago with a cepitel of 2501., and bad since received
about other nor. In November last they executed a deed
of magement under which they wen to pay a cam tine
of Ia in the pound, by two Manhunts of 6& each.
They had expectations horn a relative be Germany ; but law
mromiglep were taken, and in the molt they gut nothing.
They had been losing mosey far several years past.
They owed Messrs. (Nailer and Palmer 5201.
on four bills. Those were nearly the lan goods they
bought. When they mooned that debt they were expecting
the gamey from their relative in Germany, which would
have ambled them to pay everybody. Sam of their
acceptances given to Rymer and Co., had been dishonoured
es
far beak as 1882.
Mr. Sargood urged that the bankrupts must Log have
base utterly insolvent when all they could offer their midi.
ire by way of composition, was a shilling in the pound.
After bearing Mr. Bagley for the bankrupts,
His Honour said the bankrupts must have been insol-
vent for sever or eight years at least, and they had game
men till there wee a deficiency of more than 6,0001. It was
clear that when Messrs. antler and Palmer'. debt was
contracted they had no reasonable expectation of being able
to pay it ; for the hope of getting assistance from abroad
could not be relied on. The order of diecharge would be
suspended for 12 math; with protection far three months.
