IMPORTANT DECISION
Personal Property Held In Trust by a
Bank

RIVERSIDE, July GA case Of consid-
cradle Importance and interest. growing
out Of the failure Of the Riverside Banking
company several years ago, was decided
by Judge Noyes today. o. T. Dyer, mana
ger of the bank, decided his personal prop
erty to the directors of the bank, in trust
to secure payment of $4,000 of the bank
indebtedness. After the indebtedness Sc
secured had been paid, the directors con-
veyed the property held in trust to Mary
e. Dyer, wife of o. T. Dyer. F. o. Lathrop,
one of the creditors of the bank, sought to
set aside this conveyance.
The court decided for the defendant. and
declares that the action of the directors OF
the bank was legal in that Dyer hypothe.
Gated his property for the benefit Of credit
ors of the company to the extent of $780,
900 only; that when such amount had been
paid by the company the purpose of the
trust no longer existed, and the same was
at an end.
