mainly of the stock in the store. and
it is thought that this will not greatly
exceed the amount of the attachment.
The store is practically closed today,
being in charge of a special officer.

can be no selling of the stock, but
the cleaning and pressing business
might be carried on if the proprietor
so cared 'to have it.
i-lurlbutt & Davis feared that other
creditors would begin to place attach-

so "get in on the ground floor" by put-

get the money due them for services
rendered, and as there accrued no im-

other way. they went ahead with the
course prescribed by law.
The case is returnable before the
court of common pleas in ilridgeport,
