LAW INTILLIGENCII.

COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 7.

Err-pale SMITH, in the Matter of Ran, a Boarry.
This was an application on behalf of a judgment
creditor, praying to be permitted to prove his debt
under the commission, in order to entitle him to as-
sent to, or dissent from, the bankrupt's certificate.
This motion was made on the gre.unds of the bank-
rupt's having set up fiaitious creditors, !ex the sole
purpose at obtaining his certificate, in defraud of
his bona fide creditors; and it was stated, that he
had been no less than three times a bankrupt, and
the last time was little better than a mere pauper,
but that a good property was settled upon his wife
and children ; that tne petitioner's debt was a fair
and Sono ffde transaaion, and amounted to 17001.;
in opposition to which the bankrupt had set up a
number of fiaitinus creditors, claiming upwards of
80001. against his estate, among whom WAS a M-
I feigner, claiming a large sum of money for corn-
I muuicating to him an invention, which precluded
the necessity of using copper in sheathing ships,
with many other frivolous and fictitious claims.
On the part of the Bankrupt, it appeared that the
Petitioner held him in execution for 1700 L under
which he was now lying in prison, and subsequently
to issuing the commission, offered to give him his li-
bet ty, on condition that he should sign Wall securities
for the debt, payable by instalments; this proposal
was accompanied by a sort of threat or insinuation,
that if he did not comply, the creditor would take
measures either to supersede the commission, or pre-
vent him obtaining his certificate. The reveral debts
charged as fiaitious, he swore to be fair and just ;
and the Commissioners of Bankrupts, under the com-
mission, further certified, that he had conformed is
the nsusl way with the Bankrupt Laws.
Under these circumstances the Loan Ceaeecat.-
Loa could not help feeling that this was an attempt
of a harsh and unfeeling creditor to clu' an unfor-
tunate drbtor, and keep him in prison perhaps for
life. His object evidently was to make the bank-
rupt give him such securities as might hereafter af-
fea his personal liberty, and thereby enable him to
work upon the feelings of the wile, who had a pro.
petty for the maintenance of herself and family.
Although it was rather a suspicious circumstance,
that this was his third bankruptcy, yet as the Com-
missioners had solemnly certified, under their bands
and teals, that the bankrupt had sluly conformed to
the provisions of the Bankrupt Laws, sad as be
saw no cause to doubt or sus,:eit the veracity of
these Commissioncrs, lie likewise saw nn reason for
staying the bank, upt's certificate, and therefore
dismiased this application with costs. ,
