to pay to their creditins their debts, at their own will anti
pleimire consume the substance so ob►ained of others in
immoderate living, and then heroine bankrupts, contrary to
all reason, et:toity, and good conseicuce, and to the Statutes
of this Realm heretofore made to the contrary t and it is es-
pedient make some better pi ovi6iun fur the repression of such
bankrupts."

It therefore enacts, that " On the last examination of every
bankrupt, Commissioners shall inquire into the came of
bankruptcy and conduct of the bankrupt; and if guilty of
gross injn•tice or fraudulent practices, they shall m epori time
same to the Lord Chancellor, who shall disallow hi. eel tlti-
eate, unless eand rause shall be shew•n against such item.ort.
--Commissioners !hall famish bankrolls with a Copy of slid!
