last Charles Hyatt, keeping store for the sal,
|, Of gents furnishing goods, ut No. slG + stree
, northwest, maGc an assignment to Jane
Thompson for the benefit of his creditors and
If any balance remained after all debts wert
met il was TO he paid to whOmsOeyer might b(
legally entitled to receive it. Mr.. Thompson
yesterday filed bill in equity against George
/. Hill and other creditors, asking that they
be required TO come forward and prove theil
, accounts. lie states that he has made sale o.
all the goods for $1,000, according to the terms
of tho trust, but, inasmuch as thcro is nc
schedule of creditors to whom Hyatt was in
debted or the amounts due. the trustee finds
, himself in great doubt and uncertainty as tC
the persons entitled to claim from him. Al
the time Of tho assignment Hyatt delivered &c
him memorandum slip which he said con
tanned tho names Of All his creditors and the
amounts due them. This Mr.. Thompson sayi
he finds to be grossly incorrect, and that {
large number of persons not named In the list
have presented claims and requested TO be
recognized as creditors. Among others Il
George /. Hill. hut the amount due him the
trustee does not know, and the books Of Hyatt
were so loosely andinGOrIectly kept that they
fail to disclose the creditors or the true amount
due each. Under these circumstances he Il
: unwilling to assume the responsibility or dis
tributiIg the fund except under the order ant
discretion of the court.
