PRECEDENTS IN CONVEYANCING.

AFFIDAVIT.

No. I.

Affidavit to be made by an Insolvent Person, on
Purchasing under his Deed of Trust.

(The insolvent) maketh oath and saith, that to AFFIDAVIT. the best of his knowledge and belief all persons who were creditors of this deponent on the

being

day of in the year of our Lord
the day on which this deponent executed an as-
signment of all his property, IN TRUST for the
benefit of his creditors, by a certain INDENTURE
of that date made between the deponent, of the
first part; three of the creditors of the said
deponent of the second part; and all other the
creditors of this deponent, who should have
signed and sealed the said INDENTURE, of the
third
part, or who have become creditors at any
time since, have duly executed the said INDEN-
TURE, and consented and agreed to the release and
discharge of this deponent in the manner therein
specified. AND that to the best of this depo-

AFFIDAVIT. nent's knowledge and belief, this deponent had

not, previously to the said

day of committed any act or acts of bankruptcy whatsoever. [Or if the (insolvent) cannot swear to this affidavit, let him swear] "That ALL persons

"who were creditors of this deponent on the

"day of

in the year of our Lord

(being the day, &c.) or at any time since, have

duly executed, &c. except certain persons "who are not creditors in the whole for £200, "and no two of whom, or more than two dealing " in two copartnerships, are creditors for £150, "nor one of them, or more than one dealing in "one copartnership, is or are creditor or creditors "for £100; and that to the best of this deponent's knowledge, &c. he had not previously, &c. "committed any act of bankruptcy (1)."

[ocr errors]

(1) In all cases of purchase from insolvents there is some degree of risque, as the purchase is liable to be defeated by a subsequent commission. The creditors who have signed the deed are, however, estopped from petitioning for a commission. (See Tappenden v. Burgess, 4 East. 236.) and if the remaining creditors are not sufficient in number and value for the purpose, no commission can be taken out. The affidavit may be sworn before any magistrate or officer who will administer an oath; but as it is not in the course of a legal proceeding, perjury could not be assigned thereon.
