that 1t VIII be some months before the Board
can proceed ciicctually to the examination of

~ such delay, however, the claimants

none ofthem can he paid until it is ascertained
what the aggregate amount of allowed claims

certaned, beyond doubt, that the amount of

then, the claimants can receive no detri-

tant advantage Of time to- procure testimony,
