¶1It seems objections were made to the bankrupt’s discharge on the ground, that he had'not scheduled and given up to the assignee, for the benefit of his creditors, certain improvements on the public lands of the United States. Upon this question, the Court said:
¶2The Court does not conceive the improvements on the public lands, as mentioned in the assignee’s report herein, to be such an interest as can be passed to, or vested in, the assignee for the benefit of the creditors of the bankrupt.
