1915 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 1287

In re William A. Harris Steam Engine Co.

Opinion of the Court

BROWN, District Judge.

The opinion of the referee fully and carefully considers the principal, question of the petitioner’s right to priority under section 64a of the Bankruptcy Act. As I agree with his conclusion and reasoning upon this point, it becomes unnecessary to consider the other points that have been argued.

The order of the referee is approved and affirmed.

The petition for review is dismissed.
