NOVEL CASE UNDER TUE BANKRUPT LAW
III the United States district court at Boston, on
Saturday last, before Judge Lowell, hearing
was had on the petition of Samuel b. Potter, of
New York, for an adjudication of bankruptcy
against Norman A. Smith and Isaac c. Cotton,
of Ware, cOpartners aud contractors
for the construction and equipment of
the Ware River railroad. The act of bankruptcy
relied on by the petitioner was that the respOn-
dents being traders, had frauduently stopped
payment of their commercial paper. It appeared
from the evidence that the respondents in the
summer Of 1870, being DESTROYS of raising $685.
900 by loan, contracted with the petitioner for
the use of his name in effecting
said loan, giving acceptances therefor.
In January, 1871, the last of the acccptances
matured, and the respondents, finding it incon-
venient to pay them at that time, requested au
extension for a month"; which was granted, and
they also, from month to month, obtained sue
cessvc extensions until June, when they
promised the petitioner that they would pay
him the whole or n part of their Indebtedness
on July 18th. They failed to pay according to
their promise, aud August 25 the petitioner
filed this petition, and the novel question which
arises under it is whether these facts will sup
port the allegation that the respondents have
suspended payment Of their commercial paper
within six months prior to the filing of the
petition. Decision reserved. Geo. F. Very of
this city for petitioner; James G. Allen of
Palmer for respondents.
