3223,District Court (Third District),Bankruptcy register,i 1874-1878.,Chronological by date of initial action.,"This volume contains a register of bankruptcy cases June 16\, 1874 through August 31\, 1878 in the numerous counties of the third district. Each case gives the name of the party or parties involved and a statement indicating if the bankruptcy is voluntary or involuntary. For each case\, dates of various actions are itemized. The actions are only briefly noted\, for example: petition for adjudication\, order to show cause\, warrant of seizure filed\, list of creditors filed\, notice to assignee filed\, etc. Cases were conducted under federal bankruptcy laws enacted in 1867 and amended in 1874. In 1878 the bankruptcy law was repealed. Although cases could be completed under the old law\, no new petitions could be filed after 1 September. Thus while particular actions of later dates may be entered\, no new cases were added in this register after August 31.",,Public,1 microfilm reel
