certificates OF e6out fifty sharss Of stock, and
the trustee net balance of about Sic, 900, and
also that the trustee had received few thousand
dollars as the proceeds of stocks and bonds
| hypothetical with New Haven banks by Bunnell
/ & Scranton. These proceeds are claimed by the
| stock creditors, and the report states just what
