Excerpt: ...or is about to remove any of his property out of the state, with intent to defraud his creditors; or, 4th, that he fraudulently, contracted the debt, or incurred the obligation, respecting which the suit is brought; or, 5th, that the defendant is not a resident of the state, and has not resided therein for three months immediately preceding the time of making such affidavit; or, 6th, that the defendant is a foreign corporation.' Goods and chattels are bound by an attachment from the time of serving the writ; but to create a lien upon real estate, a certified copy of the writ, with a description of the realty, must be deposited in the office of the register of deeds of the county where the same is situate. If it appears by the return of the writ that either of the defendants has been served personally, the suit proceeds as in ordinary cases; if there has been no personal service, but property of the defendant has been attached, the plaintiff' is required to publish in a newspaper of the county, or judicial circuit, for six successive weeks, a notice of the attachment, after which, upon filing an affidavit of the fact, he may file his declaration and proceed as if a copy had been served on the defendant. Where perishable property has been attached, it may be sold pending the proceedings by order of the court. Where there has been no personal service, a judgment is rendered in the ordinary form, but it is not conclusive upon the defendant, and on an execution thereupon, the officer is only authorized to sell the property attached. In cases of joint indebtedness, the Writ of attachment may issue against the separate or joint estate of such debtors, or any of them, (a) There are similar provisions authorizing and regulating attachments in...

Excerpt from Debtor and Creditor, Including Bankruptcy: Containing the Text of the Federal Bankruptcy Law, With Questions, Problems and Forms In this volume, an attempt has been made to gather the chief law relating to creditors and debtors in relation to the rights of each which spring out of the contract or the general law. The different sorts and forms of indebtedness, the important subject of liens, the payment, settlement and compromise of the debt, the manner of collecting a debt through the means of legal machinery and, finally, the law of bank ruptcy under the National Bankruptcy Act, are all considered. The volume ought to be helpful to busi ness men in a very practical way. The author is not familiar with any other volume which attempts either in a small or large way to bring together the law relating to debtor and creditor in its various aspects.

Excerpt from The Rights and Remedies of Creditors Respecting Their Debtor's Property The following chapters contain the substance of a special course of lectures delivered at the Law School of Columbia University, on the rights of creditors respecting their debtors property. The aim of these lectures was to harmonize, as far as possible, the various statutes and doctrines which are scattered through the body of our law so as to demonstrate the system afforded by our jurisprudence for the realization of debts out of the debtors property. I now offer these labors in completed form as an aid to the study of this system as a whole, and of the relation which each part of the system bears to the others. I have not attempted an exhaustive discussion of any particular branch of the general subject. That would have obscured the single purpose for which the work was undertaken, and would do no special good, since many books have long since been written on all these different topics, ranging from treatises on executions to volumes on bankruptcy and receivers. But because, so far as I have gathered, none of these books attempts the task of synthesis to which the work that here follows is devoted, the present effort is put forth for what it may be worth to the student of our law and his brother of the bar as well. Some of the ideas advanced in this book I have already suggested in the course of various articles which I have written for the Columbia Law Review, and my indebtedness to the writings of others is, I hope, sufficiently indicated by the marginal references in the course of the following pages.
