all his property to A. J. Clunie, the defend
ants brother, in trust for his creditors

firm agreed to sell To Clunie, AS attorney for

dollar, and Cluns made the purchase,
agreeing to pay 80 cents on the dollar within
ten days after the sale, in addition to which
sum Sutlff executed his promissory notes
aggreg ating SS74 for the remaining 10 per
cent.
Between July /, 1884, and January /,
1889, Sutliff says that Clunie received S2i-
600 belonging to him, and received it in
trust to pay the indebtedness existing at the
time the assignment was made. Clunie, he
alleges, refused to pay the two promissory
notes, and Sutiiff himself was compelled 10
do so, claiming that although he sigaed
them, Clunie promised to pay them out of
the moneys received by him belonging to
plaintiff and that lie now holds, in addition
TO the aggregate amount of the two notes,
over $1,000 owing TO the plaintiff in excess
OF all his Indebtedness at the time of the
assignment
