take out a'country one; the two creditors inet at the bankrupt
office at one and the same time; the Secrete' Mt rather at a loss
to know how to proceed, but inclined to allaw the docquet papers
to be struck for a London Commission in preference to a
country one; both creditors then profei:Sed themselves pre-
pared to sue out a London Commission, and according to a
precedent of Lord Erskine's, both having arrived at the office at
the same time, they drew lots who should have the Commission;
the lot fell to a Mr. Moss, the creditor who originally was in
favour of having a Country CoMmission. Mr. Moss, therefore,
took out a London Commission ; he, however, did nothing, or
next to nothing under it, but soon afterwards applied to the
Court ix parte, stating that the great body of creditors lived
in Derby, that it would be very advantageous to have
Derby assignees appointed, and a great saving of expense to the
bankrupt's estate, to have the Conunis4.4ini worked iu Dexby,
and, therefore, the petition prayed a supersedeas of the London
Commission, and leave to the petitioner immediately to issue a
country one. The COurt made the order as4rayed, and the ori-
ginally defeated creditor now appeared to complain of that
ex:•parte application, and to apply for a supersedeas of the
Country Commission. Mr. Montagu considered that Mr. Hart,
Who applied for that Country Commission, kid not • acted.
fairly towards the Court, because he hail suppressed the most ma-
terial fact, that the parties at first had cast • lots as to who should
work'a London Commission. Mr. 'Montagu's client was now,
and had always been ready to strike and work a London Com-
mission, where it was agreed, on all hands, the Commissioners, &c.
were better acquainted with proceedings in bankruptcies than they
could be supposed to be in the country, and therefore he hoped his
Lordship would now supersede the existing Commission, and give
leave to the petitioner to take out a Town Commission.

Mr. Ettc;citasTrrn and Mr. DUO:WORTH attended to oppose
the petition, but Mr. Montagu spun out his speech to such an
enormous length, that those gentlemen bad not had en opportunk
