WAYMAN VS. STOCKETT. 497
the petition of the complainant, Shipley, for that purpose, passed
the following order:
"The petition of Larkin Shipley, filed on the 10th instant,
standing for hearing on this day, and no cause having been shown
to the contrary, according to the order passed on the said 10th

trustees shall bring into this court the certificates of the said
stock, there to remain until further order."
