FRIDAY, MAY 29.
BILL OF EXCEPTIONS
IK OFFSET MATTER
Mr. Archibald Blackshear Has
Filed Bill and Case Will Be
Carried to the Supreme Court
of Georgia.
Judge Henry C. Hammond in the
Richmond superior court, decided a
few days ago, that deposits of the de
funct Irish American Bank, purchased
Letween the time the bank was closed
by the state bank examiners and the
time of the filing of a petition for a
receiver would hold good as offsets
against notes due the Irish American
The case was brought by Pierce Bros.,
attorneys lor Mr. I. S. Peebles.
Mr. Archibald Blackshear, attorney
for the receiver, at the request of
Judge Hammond, has filed a bill of
exceptions on the following grounds,
and the case will go to the supreme
court:
1. Because said judgment is con
trary to law.
2. Because said judgment is con
trary to equity.
3. Because said judgment is con
trary to the principles of equity and
without law to support it.
4. Because the court erred in ren
dering said judgment and hoiuins;
that the assignment dated lanuary 3,
1914, wak a valid set-off to the note
of the plaintiff due the insolvent
bank; the admitted facts being, that
the insolvent bank ceased to be a
going concern on the 13th day of De
cember, 1913, and its assets
having been surrendered on said day
to the bank examiners of the state
of Georgia, and consequently all the
assets of the insolvent bank were on
the 13th day of December. 1913, im
pressed with a trust for the benefit
of all of its creditors alike.
5. That said judgment was errone
ous, because it permitted the defena
ant in erro- to obtain an equitable
attachment against the insolvent
bank, and thereby prevented the as
sets held in trust by the bank exam
iners of the state of Georgia from
being intact for the benefit of all the
creditors of said institution.
6. That said judgment was erro
neous, because the act of the direc
tors of said insolvent bank vested the
bank examiners of the state of Geor
gia wit the title to all of the assets
of the said bank on the 13th day of
December, 1913, and said action on
the i art of said directors of said bank
was a legal bar to the purchasing of
claims against said bank for the pur
pose of setting the same off against
debts due the said bank at the face
value of such claims, in that the said
action of the bank examiners in tak
ing charge of the assets of said insti
tution into a trust fund for e ben
efit. of all of the creditors of said l ank
alike.
The plaintiff in error specifies as
material to a clear understanding of
the errors complained of the follow
ing .rtion of the record, to-wit:
(a) The petition anul the temporary
restraining order issued therein.
(b) The answer of Irvin Alexander,
receiver.
(c) The agreed statement of facts.
(d) The agreement between the
parties that the case be submitted to
the lower court at the first term to
pass upon the law and facts without
the intervention of a jury.
(e) The judgment of the judge of
the supevior court of the Augusta cir
cuit. dated May 26, 1914.
And now comes the plaintiff in er
ror within the period allowed by law,
and presents this, his bill of excep
tions and prays that the same may
be signed and certified in order that
the errors complained of may be con
sidered and corrected.
This 28th day of May, 1914.
ARCHIBALD BLACKSHEAR.
Attorney for Plaintiff in Error.
I do certify that the foregoing bill
of exceptions is true and contains
and specifies all of the evidence, and

The Hot s Weather Too Much For
“Apple Mary,” Who Has Waited
Sixty-seven Years for Sweetheart
New York.—After 67 years of waiting for the return of her sailor
sweetheart who went to sea in IS4 7 as the third officer of an American
merchantman on a voyage to China with her promise to marry him on his
return ."Apple Mary" Walsh, 84 years old, has decided to desert her sta
tion at the Battery for more comfortable quarters on Blackwell's Island.
The heat led “Apple Mary,” to teach her decision. She asked a police
man to arrest her. She was taken before a police magistrate who after
hearing her story cortimitted her as requested.
“Apple Mary" explained that she received a letter from her sailor boy
a year after his departure. After that no trace of his ship ever was
recorded but she always expected to meet him some day at the Battery
where they parted on the day he sailed.
