Mow Sharper than a Serpents’ Tooth to Have a Thankless Child, Wew Buits, Oonfessions, Judgmonts, Di- vorces, Bankraptaies, Eto. A bill was filed sesterday In the Cirenit Court by George H. Tobey akalnst bis partoer, William La Pierce, for adissolution of the firm of Tobey & Picree. Compinlnant says that, on the 20th of March, 1875, he went into partnership with the defendant for the purpose of carrylug on the packing and provision business. Plerce fur- nished as his share the interest he had in the packing-house Nos. 237, 220, 233, and 235 Des- plaincs street, the buililing being situated on Jeaced ground. It was agreed that complatnant should not be responsible for therent of the bullding nor for Plerce’s individual debts, but might at his optlon obtain & half interest fn the Dbuliding and lease. About 2,000 has Leen expended fn Dinprovements on the bullding, for which complalnant is outl- tled to be refmbursed. Plerce has also drawn $2,000 on account of the fmlchtedness on the packing-house, and §5,000 on his own sccount, making §,000 in all, which should be credited to his account. Complainant, on the other hand, haa only withdrawn $1.000, and clatms there are several thousawd dollars owing hiva, The business has been earried on up to the present time ab a profit, and now the trm ts sclling oft Its property to pay Its debts and close up. Nothlng remains but the packing- houee, and a quantity of ice stored therein. ‘The bullding Is in Plerce's name, nnd he i3 try- inz to dispose of 1t for s own benefit, ir- respective of complainant's rights, The latter, therefore, asks thut Plerce miny be restrained from carrylng out bls design, that an account way be had, and the partnership dissolved, A PERSISTENT CREDITOR.
