Passed Dec. 23. |
WHEREAS John Carruthers, of the city of Baltimore,

and Crosdale, for the benefit of his creditors; that all his creditors

as to their claims; that he has certain foreign creditors who have

of suits against him, prevent any future exertions for a
support; that if he is compelled to remain here to pursue the directions
of the several insolvent laws of this state, he cannot embrace
the opportunity that now offers, and therefore prays an act to release
him from his debts, upon his taking the oath, and executing
the deed, required by the act of eighteen hundred and five, entitled,
An act for the relief of sundry insolvent debtors; therefore, |
Preamble. |
