COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RE A. W. RIDER.

This bankrupt had carried on business in Bevis Marks,
Aldgate, and this was an application under the 112th sec-
tion, for release from custody.

Mr. Sargood supported.--This was the third application.
The bankrupt had been connected in business with his
brother, Thomas George Rider, who has absconded and
been declared bankrupt, and in the belief that the above
bankrupt (A. W. Rider) was about to leave this country a
writ of capias was issued, on which he was arrested and
lodged in the Queen's Bench Prison. The first application
was refused, as proper notices had not been served, and
on the last occasion his Honour intimated that he would
not grant a release unless the bankrupt gave security.
Mr. Brandon, Essex-street, appeared for the assignees,
and took objection that as the bankrupt was in custody
under an order of the Court of Queen's Bench to give bail
the Court had no jurisdiction.

His Honour held that the objection was good, and said
that the bankrupt must apply to the Court above.
The bankrupt was thereupon taken back to the Queen's
Bench prison, until released by the court above, or obtains
his discharge under the proceedings against him in bank-
ruptcy.

26th of February I answered an advertisement for a cook,
being in want of a person in that capacity in my establish-
ment, and on the following day the prisoner presented her-
self to me. I enquired of her where she had last been
in service, and she said at No. 28,Stratford-place, Camden-
town, in the family of a gentleman named Saws. She said
she had resided there about a year and nine months, and
that she left in consequence of a quarrel she had with
one of the four servants that were kept by Mr. Saws.
I told her I should want a reference, and she said she would
go and see her late master and get permission for rue to
call. The prisoner then left, and the following morning
she came to my house and told me her master was away
from home, and, as her mistress was uncertain, the gentle-
man hal written her a letter, which she handed to me. It
