U.S. District Court · decided 1873-01-15

The bankrupt having made application for his discharge, specifications in opposition thereto were filed by Goold Hoyt, executor, &e., a creditor who had proved his claim. The facts in relation to the claim were these: On April 10th, 1865 [Septimus E.] Swift leased of Hoyt, executor, &c. certain premises in New York City, for five years from Hay 1, 1865.

Decided 1873-01-15

BLATCHFORD, District Judge.

¶1In this case I am of opinion that the debt due to Goold Hoyt, executor, &c., represented by the judgment recovered April 1st, 1871, and from which debt the bankrupt seeks a discharge, was contracted prior to the 1st day •of January, 1869, namely, when the agreement of May. 186S, was made. The case will, therefore, stand for hearing on the specifications filed by said creditor.
