W. W Lambdin, for petitioning creditors.
In this case insolvency proceedings were instituted in the honorable superior court of Pike county, Ga., and a receiver was appointed by that court. Proceedings in bankruptcy were instituted here, and, upon application in behalf of the petitioning creditors, the parties in the state court were here enjoined pursuant to the provisions of the bankrupt act.
