estates from which it was derived.
George w. Campbell and Bradford Hancock, as
signees, testified in similar manner to Mr. Jenkins
William H. Bradley testified that the National
Bank of Illinois designated by Judge Blodgett as
depository of the funds in bankruptcy witness was
director in the bank; Blodgett was not stock

been sufficiently covered. would be returned to the
memoriaists
Charles s. Crane testified that he bid for Fox Il

bid and Judge Blodgett confirmed the sale, but when
he offered the first payment OF $2ooOo Hancock said
the sale had been made to other parties; he then
applied to Judge Blodgett for relief and he said he
did not want to hear anything more about it; he
finally got the property by decree OF Judge Drum
ADMISSION THE ACCUSED.
The memorialists were going into the papers OF
this vouminous case when Judge Blodgett arose and
said he would admit all that. The witness denied
that he had threatened Judge Bodgett. He had said

Several. witnesses were here called who testified
that it q common practice of the Court to eI-
point professional assgLees and that those in ques-
ton had given unusual satisfaction; aso that Judge
Blodgett refused to appoint assignee at the
proper request Of creditors.
Here the defence claimed that they were not prop
erly furnished with charges in advance by the
mcmorialists.
Mr.. sheldon complained that the District Court
hindered them from obtaining papers from its hles
Judge Blodgett-That is false.

low Block to the government; that Blodgett ordered
that Winston be paid, and that Judge Drummond re-
voked that order. The defence put the act of Con-
gress for the purchase and advertisement OF bids

Winston testified that he WAS agent for the parties
Interested in the sale and paid by them; that
those court proceedings mmaterial.
/. GcorgeC, Campbell testified that Judge Drummond
revoked the order upon the death Of George Bigelow
