ARTISTIC PORCELAIN COMPANY STOP
The Hamilton Township Concern Must Stop All Business Until a Debt Case is Settled
Francis C. Lowthrop, a solicitor for complainant in the case of Frank W. Skillman vs Noah W. Boch et al., this morning in Chancery filed a bill of complaint and affidavit setting forth that Noah W. Boch, of this city, and Samuel B. Miller and Charles H. Granniss, of Branford, Connecticut, were partners in Hamilton township, doing business under the firm Artistic Porcelain Company; that the company owned land in the township to the value of $5,000; that the company owed various sums to the complainant, as shown by judgements obtained in the City District Court aggregating about $150.
No goods of the defendants could be found to levy upon so a levy was made upon the real property. The complainant alleges that then, in order to escape their just debts, the defendants made and executed a deed of incorporation of the Artistic Porcelain Company, and then the same here and their wives executed a deed conveying the property mentioned to the company.
Complainant therefore prays that the defendants show cause why an injunction should not be issued restraining the corporation defendant from using, consuming, manufacturing, selling, encumbering, removing or otherwise disposing of its goods and materials, and that until further order from the court the work of the company shall cease.
Vice Chancellor Reed this morning granted the motion and set October sixth as the day when cause shall be shown.
