““The primary purpose of this receivership is not to take possession of the corporation property for an immediate sale, but to hold, conserve and protect it pending the principal litigation and until such time as the issues and controversies arising between the parties may be finally determined. No insolvent corporation is here involved. A court of equity, holding property by its receiver, may in its discretion, direct a sale prior to final adjudication when the property becomes liable to loss or material depreciation.””
