1Opinion of the CourtHill, C. J.
1. The. fact that claim for the unpaid price of goods sold on credit is proved and allowed in bankruptcy is no bar to a subsequent action by the creditor against the debtor to recover the balance due for the goods, where it is alleged that they were obtained by false representations made by the debtor to induce the sale. Friend v. Talcott, 228 U. S. 27 (33 Sup. Ct. 505, 30 Am. Bkr. R. 31).
2. A discharge in bankruptcy does not release a bankrupt from liability for obtaining property by false pretenses, or false representations. Atlanta Skirt Mfg. Co. v. Jacobs, 8 Ga. App. 299 (68 S. E. 1077).
