Mr. Olhbon says :
" 1 llnd It almost Impossible to collect
farmers' notes nt this season of the year , and
instead of forcing collections on this class of

that I held as security for notes of John

ments of salu companies , 1 respectfully
nek that both of thcso companies bo
required to furnish your honorable court
with an Itemized statement of nil property

ihelr liabilities , nnd that they bo nnjolnod
from disposing of uny such property until
