Had a bystander or a reporter gone into
the Court without any previous knowledge
of them he would have been as little able
to give any account of them as he is of
the ordinary cases. To the causes of confusion
before specified may be added added
the noise occasioned of different sets of
creditors squabbling or discussing in the same
room.

Tradesmen in the City constantly complain their that
the cases of the greatest importance to the
trading community which occur in the
Bankruptcy Courts rarely if ever obtain
publicity and that the courts great criminals
are constantly set at large to prey
upon the community and frauds perpetuated
which could not continue after exposure.

schedule
the bystander or reporter has not access to
the schedule, so as to enable him to know
the state of the cases estate so that
he may present the whole clearly to the
public. But whenever the discharge of
a debtor in this court is opposed in
this court; the examination is conducted
as in the Common Law Courts and suffic
the matter in question, that is the objection
to the insolvent's discharge may
be comp perfectly well understood

Consequently it is of the proceedings
of the insolvent debtors Debtors Court
are commonly reported in the public journals in the same
way as the other courts of judicature.
