COURT OF BA/AA-RUT' 'CY, April 29.
(Before Mr. Commissioner FONBLAYQUE.)
IN RE WILLIAM BURLEIGH.

Today was appointed for a pro •t of debts under the estate
of this bankrupt, who had failed to a large amount, and had
been 'ln attorney.

The present application was made to admit a proof on be-
half of the trustees of the marriage settlement of Norman
Burleigh, the son of the bankrupt. It will no doubt be re-
membered that a short time since the Learned Commissioner
gave judgment in a chilli by Win. Norman for a very large
amount, which it was contended was due to him under the
marriato settlement of the bankrupt and his wife (the.
claimant's mother), but the Court was of opinion that the
trusts of the deed had been' violated with the consent of the
plaintiff, and that, therefore he had no right to complain, and
that, in fact, he had joined in the bankrupt's speculation.
The present claim was to prove for about 6,000/., which, it
was contended, had been paid by the bankrupt as trustee of
the marriage settlement of his son with a Miss Milner, the
daughter of Dean Milner. The money had been paid to
No...man Burleigh, but it was set up now that the payments
were contrary to the trusts of the deed, &c.—that Norman
Burleigh wa,i insane.

The Court reserved its judgment, and left the figures to
the aficial assignee, who said they were not questioned on
either side.
