IN THE MATTER OF BONDS.

than 10 per cent will ever be recovered.

has only property sufficient to mako good one

This Is an indefensibie condition. 1t seems
to The World. IL would seem that there should
be law covering the case OF u professional
bondsman who qualities falsely When he
makes oath that certain property Ia free from

state that 1t Is encumbered by previous bond

promise settlements that this professional
