See. 0. The Court may, id its dlseraliou,. when
special circumnanccs exist which temporarily df*
press tbeRfticof thr property, delay the ofdef of
?aJe« or may direct the Receiver to cxattiine afid
report whether it would be expedient-to make nti
immediate sale of such property, and on such re
port. or other satisfactory evidence, "showing that
a delay in the sale would tend to secure a fairer
price, may order such sale to be delayed, ami iu
all such cases the Court may, in the case of real
fs'ate, or of a plantation and slaves, order the Re
ceiver to lease the same on such terms as the Court
may prescribe.
See. It). In cases where an alien enemy may
have contracted in writing, before the twenty-first
day of May, eighteen hundred and sixty-one. Yo
sell real estate to a citizen, or citizens, of the Con
federacy. and to make title upon payment of the
purchase money, the Court in decreeing sequestra
tion of the said purchase money, or the residue
thereof unpaid, shall further decreo that the Re
ceiver of the district in which said real estate is
situate shall, upon payment of said purchase mo
ney or the residue thereof,! as aforesaid, make title
for such real estate to the purchaser or his assignee.
Sec. 11. The Court shall audit and pass on the
accounts of the Receiver as provided in this Act,
and lift one to which this is an amendment; hut
in lieu of the compensation and allowances there-
iu provided for, shall allow such compensation as
to it shall seem reasonable and just, following,
in this respect, as far as may be applicable
the analogies furnished by the laws of the
State in which the Court is held, concerning com
pensation to executors, administrators and trus
tees: and the Court shall further allow to the re
ceiver all proper expenses attending the execution
of his office. And ail fees ai-d allowances passed
by the Court iq favor of any receiver may he re
tained by him from any money in his hands; and
all fees and allowances to any Receiver beyond
the rate of five, thousand dollars per annum, ex
cept for expenses as aforesaid, shall be forthwith
paid by him into the Confederate Treasury, to the
use of the Confederate States, and shall be brought
into, and stated and accounted for in his next ac
count of settlement as Receiver.
Sec. 12. The Couit shall appoint an attorney
for each section iu which the Court shall be holden,
and in which no attorney of the Confederate
States resides, whose duties it shall be to discharge,
within said section, the duties imposed on the at
torney of the district by the Act to which this is
amendatory; and the compensation of such attor
ney so appointed shall be the same for business
by him done as is now provided by ninth section
of said Act for the district attorney.
Sec. 13. The Receiver shall in all cases, take
the possession and control of the money, property
and effects ot alien enemies, and of juch choses in
action as shall be in the bands of any agent or
third person, except when otherwise provided bv
tills Act, and, on being refused possession, shall
sue for the same, and such possession shall not be
withheld on any pretext of any provisions of the
Act to which this is amendatory. The Court may
order a delay in the sale of property when it shall
be necessary to complete or gather a growing crop,
or when it shall be otherwise manifestly to the bene
fit of the Confederate States to delay the sale;
but in all such cases the possession, control and
management shall be with the Receiver, or under
his control and authority. And in the collection
of debts or choses in action, no State stay law shall
govern, but the same shall be governed by this
Act, and the one to which this is an amendment,
so far as the latter does not conflict with this Act.
Sec 14. It shall be the duty of all persons ow
ing debts to alien enemies, within three months
from the passage of this Act. to give information
thereof to the Receiver ol the district ill which he
gard to whether any proceedings have or have not
been instituted to sequestrate the same. Aud any
person who. after giving such information, shall
fail to pay over and deliver on demand, made by
the Receiver, shall stand in contempt, and the Re
ceiver shall at once move the Court or Judge to
proceed against such party as in other cases of
contempt;"and the Court or Judge may imprison
the offender until he shall comply with the require
ments of this Act. And such payment or deliv
ery shall fully acquit and discharge the paity from
all and every claim for or on account of such mo
ney, ptoperty, effects and evidences of debt.—
And the Receiver shall give such person a receipt,
specifying the amount of money, the property, ef
fects and evidences of debt paid and delivered
and the name of the alien enemy on account of
whom the same shall be paid and delivered. Pro
vided, That when the person having the posses
sion or control of any money of an alien enemy,
asserts a debt or claim, against such alien enemy
in his own favor, he may file it in writing in the
proper Court, swearing that lie believes himself
justly entitled to the same, and thereupon lie shall
not be compelled, in the first instance, to pay over
to the Receiver the amount ihus propounded and
claimed by him : hut the Court shall then pro-
ceed to examine and try the validity of tne said
debt or claim, aud decree according to the facts
found, and the rights and justice of the case. And
it the Court decides against the debt or claim, the
party setting lip the same shall forthwith pay
over, the sum so retained by him. And if the
Court shall decree in favor of the debt or claim
thus propounded, and it exceeds the entire
amount originally :n possession of such debtor or
or claimant, he shall pay no costs; otherwise he
shall pav all costs incident to the proceedings.
