Judge Pritchard Decides Gaffney Case.
Judge Pritchard, of the United
States circuit court of appeals, has
just filed his decision in the cases of
Puffer Manufacturing Company, The
Liquid Carbonic Company and the In
ternational Harvester Co. against A.
C. Pridmore, as trustee, of the Lip
scomb Silica Springs Co., bankrupt.
The above parties sold machinery
to the Springs Company sometime be
fore it went into the hands of a re
ceived. After the bankruptcy the
trustee took charge of the machinery
as assets of the bankrupt, the ven
dors claimed it by reason of condi
tional sales. Referee Speer, held that
the title to the property was in the
trustee. J. C. Otts, attorney for the
vendors appealed the case to the
United States district court. Judge
Rrawley reversed the referee and or
dered the property turned over to the
vendors. W. S Hall, attorney for the
trustee, appealed the case to the
United States circuit court of ap
peals, the ease was argued by the at
torneys at Richmond in May. This
week Judge Pritchard filed his opin
ion sustaining the judgment of Judge
Rrawley.
The machinery, which is valued at
about $1,S00. is ordered turned over
to the vendors, and the unsecured
creditors will get nothing.

Often fall to th' ground for the want of a solid
foundation. Tney probably would have retained
their shape if they had had something substantial
to rest upon—a Bank Account.
Are you going to let yours fall for want of a
foundation, or are you going to open a Savings
Account today and build a foundation that will
withstand whatever stress that is placed upon it.
Our 4 per cent, interest will help strengthen it.
