Contempt of Court.

Contempt of Court.
Vice Chancellor Bird yesterday filed
conclusion ia the case Of Arnett against
Trimmer, on motion for contempt. In
this case Trimmer, who is one of the So
licitors Of the Chancery Court, was made
assignee for the benefit of the creditors of
an insoIyent debtor. AS such assignee
he caused an appraisemept to be made.
Among the articles SO appraised were a
sleigh, wagon and set of harness, all
valued at $45. While he held these ar
ticles an injunction was procured by the
complainant, who held a cbattel mortgage
on these and other goods, forbidding the
defendant, as assignee, from selling them.
This injunction had been served, but be-
fore the final decree. He was therefore
held for contempt in disobeying the man
date of the Court.
The Vice Chancellor concludes that an
attachment shall issue, unless Trimmer,
within ten days, pay to the solicitor of the
complainant the appraised value of said
goods and the costs of proceedings
