1Opinion of the Court

POWELL, District Judge.

This is an involuntary petition filed against a corporation established under the laws of the state of Maine. For the present purposes of the case, it may be.taken that the business of the corporation, was in fact carried on altogether in Massachusetts. Certain creditors,-appearing to object to the adjudication, have pleaded to the jurisdiction of this court.

The bankrupt act, by express terms, gives this court jurisdiction. Section 2 (1) provides that this court may “adjudge persons bankrupt who have had their principal place of business, reside, or have their domicile”…
