1Opinion of the Court
HUNT, Circuit. Justice.
The plaintiff, as the assignee in bankruptcy of J. K. Place & Co., files his bill to set aside as void various assignments made by the bankrupts. Many questions were presented to the district court for its decision, which are now brought before this court upon appeal. Although arising out of transactions with one or more of the firm of J. K. Place & Co., and although, in some particulars, dependent upon the same evidence, the questions are distinct, and must be stated and passed upon separately. I will give them, in order, such consideration as may seem necessary.
