IMPORTANT DECISION.
Deed of Trust of Berry Bros Tobacco
Co. Set Aside.

Co. Set Aside
Judge Frank Christian in the corpora
tion court.yesterday, handed down a de.
cislon setting aside the deed of trust and
the charter of incorporation of the Berry
Bros. Tobacco Company. The decision
was given in the suit brought against the
company by the First National Bank, or
Onnncock, for 81 900, and IL petition filed
by the National Exchange Bauk of this
city for 81 600
In his opinion, the Judge set forth that
when the Berry Bros, manufacturers OF
tohacc in Bedford City, became insovent,
the Berry Bros. Tobacco Company, OF
which M. r. ID. Berry was president,
and w. w. Berry, secretary and treas.
urer, was chartered; that the Nessrs.
Berry owned all of the stock except three
shares; that there were virtually no as
sets; that Berry Bros. transferred all of
their business to the Berry Tobacco Com
pany and in consideration thereof re
ceived stock and bonds; that the Berry
Bros. Tobacco Company conveyed their
property to a trustee to secure the bonds
and were authorized to conduct the bus
mess and sell the goods, without ac-
countability for the~proceeds TO the trus-
tee, and that the Berry Bros were the
buyers and the sellers .of the property
For these. stated reasons the court held
that the deed of trust and the charter of
incorporation hindered, delayed, and de
frauded the creditors of what was due
them, and he therefore set them aside.
The plaintiff hanks were represented in
the suit by Messrs. Blackboard, Horsley
q Blackford and Messrs. Wilson Il Man
