Ives, trus. tee, vs. John W. Manwaring, Jr., a others, judgment is given for the de- fendants. This was a suit brought by Mr. Ives as trustee of the bankrupt estate of the late Charles F. Lilli- bridge to recover the sum of $1,680 for | which Lillibridge sold two automobiles to Manwaring and L. B, Brockett in November, 1911, with an \‘nders‘andlng that the money was to be a loan an he might repurchase the machines in a day or two, or within a reasonable time. This he never did, but the de- fendants subsequently sold the two machines, it was alleged, for $2,500 al- together.” The judge ruled that thisi transaction was a bona fide one and that the purchasers apparently took the chances of the trade and that the tender of the money made by the trus- tée to recover the automobiles was not | made within a reasonable time.
