lIIPMITII WOODVILLF, IN THE MATTER Of LODGE.

Mr. Coots contended, that there were not Cu&
cknt grounds on which to fupport this Commifflon of
Bankruptcy. The evidence of the AO, on which the
commiffion was founded, depended upon a perfon of
the name of Dancock, againfl whom a bill of india-
rnent had been preferred for perjury, which had been
found to be a true bill. His Lordfhip would not
permit a committon to proceed, on the authority of
one placed in fuch circumftances. The Affignees,
in order to harrafs the Petitioner, had removed the
indiement by certiorari to the King's Bench.
Mr. ALEXANDER, for the Aflignees.--,' The in-
diftment is not founded upon the examination before
Lord Ettatisotoutatt, but upon an athdatit in chit
Court."
