Abstract
George N. Rogers seeks to surrender his estate. Rogers represents that, due to three years of bad crops, the loss of seed cane, and the expenses required in order to establish a sugar plantation, he is unable to pay his debts, and his property is already under seizure “at the suit of some of his creditors.” He prays for an order calling for a meeting of all his creditors to ensure that his property is surrendered and disposed of “fairly and legally” to the common benefit of all his creditors. He also prays that, in the meantime, all individual suits pending against him be stayed.
Result: Granted.
