Mr. Jewell, one Of the counsel for the Bank, then
read memorial from the stockholders TO the effect
that from an examination of the condition Of the bank,
which may be verified from the report of the agents
appointed by the Court the liabilities of the bank are
amply secured and that the capital of the same is not
30 much impaired as to render it advisable 10 80 into
Iouidaton He also stated that competent persons
are ready TO give bonds in sufficient sum to guarantee
the payment Of all their indebtedness which indebted
ness there will be in sixty days sufficient sum re-
ceived from the assets of the bank to pay of.
They therefore petitioned that the bank remain IN
the hands Of the agents, as al present, until Wednes-
day March -, unless the bank shall desire another
hearing at an earlier day, and that in the mean time
the President and Directors have power TO do any act
necessary for the liquidation Of the bank liabilities.
Attorney General Clifford did not object to the grant
ing of the prayer of the petitioners.
The Court said that the bond could not be taken by
the Court and that there was some objection to the
latter clause of the memorial of the stockholders as
granting rather too extensive powers.
He did not object however, to give all necessary
authority TO make all settlements to obtain the assets
of the bank but if the Court allowed them to go any
further it might possibly result in the payment Of some
creditors while Others were compelled to accept re-
duced dividend The Court, after some further con-
yersaon said that he should consent to the postpone
ment and would sign decree modifying to some
extent the power of the agents some time during the
day.
