These goods could not now be found, and the total assets of the firm which could be found amounted to only $400 He had every reason to believe, and fur ther that he could prove, that the goods in question had been secretly disposed of, l having been shipped to two brothers of members of the defunct firm, who were now in business at Fall River, Mass. Ii was further alleged that the failure was evidently premeditated one, in that the firm had received the goods at about the same time the payments for which came l due, and then had conveniently failed just prior thereto.
