Smith Declares He Owes the
Bank No Money in Answer
Filed in Bankruptcy Case

In the second answer filed today by
| his counsel, Harrison r. Lindabury,
Raymond e. Smith, the alleged
wrecker of the Roseville Trust Com
pany. claims he does not owe the
| bank q cent.
Respondent further alleges that
the Roseville Trust Company is not
one of his creditors" is the way the
paragraph is worded.
He denies he committed an act of
bankruptcy by suffering the Rose
Vile Trust Company to obtain a
/ preference through legal proceedings,
and alleges the fact to be that under
| a writ of attachment issued on be-
half of the bank, certain property of
| his was attached. But 1t had been
surrendered to the receiver appointed
| by the court, the answer goes on, and
is now in his possession free from
| lien.
! He declares he is not indebted to
Marie Louise Smith for $500 on a
promissory note The said note came
| into her possession from Elizabeth
Smith, to whom he made 1t, and "at
| the time she had full knowledge of
! the infirmities of the instrument"
She is not a bona flde holder, he
swears.
Another interesting paragraph Of
the answer reads:
Respondent says that he never di-
rectly or indirectly obtained any
money property or any other thing
of value for his own USE"
He asks for a dismissal of the pc
! titlon on the grounds that 1t is irreg-
ular and defective.
