On the morning of the 8th April, these sums of money were paid out of court. Our poiat, My Lout, se is, that inasmuch as the Fuk On did not complete their attachment of these two sums by actual receipt of the same until after they had received, through their solicitore, notice at a bankruptcy petition, Mr. Wakeman, as trustee in bankruptcy, is entitled to come before this Court and to ask Your Lo ship that these anuas should be paid by the Fak On to him as trustee in lankruptcy, for the gen eral benellt of the creditors.
