Fredericks Bankruptcy Case Settled.
That John I. Fredericks of Winter
port was a merchant or broker and
not a farmer or tiller of the soil when
he was petitioned into bankruptcy by
his creditors, three years ago. is the
decision handed down by Judge Hale
of the United States district court.
| Fredericks had liabilities of nearly
| 100000, due mostly to fertilizer and
| farm implement dealers, and operated
large sections of farming lands. He
claimed that he was a farmer and
could not be forced into bankruptcy. A
potato house owned by Fredericks
burned, with an insurance Of about
$4,000. The Bucksport National Bank,
which held mortgages on this property,
collected the insurance. A suit in
equity was brought on the ground that
the insurance money should go into
the estate and the mortgages be set
