EVENING SU

INSOLVENT COURT.-THIS DAY

IN RE THE REV. WILLIAM DAY.
WOODROFFE moved for a re-assignment in this
case. The grounds upon which the Learned Gentleman
rested his motion were certain affidavits and documental
drawn up by Mr. Lamb, who audited the accounts. The
insolvent had some time since passed through this Court,
owing debts to the amount of 5851. I ls. 2d., and his
assets had since been made available for 1,2011. I Is. 2d.,
so that, after paying each creditor 20s. in the pound, 3
balance of 7061. stood in Court in favour of the insolvent.
Mr. Commissioner BOWEN—Has the money been paid
to the crediters yet ? Mr. Woodroffc believed not; but
that he considered to be immaterial, as the money was
in
the hands of trustees for the benefit of the creditors, and
that had been decided in the case of ,‘ Jephson" to be
sufficient.
Mr. Commissioner BOWEN said there could be no Morel
doubt but that the Rev. Gentleman bad paid all his cre-
ditors in full; however, there must be legal proof, in
dime
obtaining, of which he thought there could be little dim'
culty or inconvenience, and when that was acquired be
should at once accede to the motion.
