1552.
Priority
Debts.
Certain
debts
have
priority,
and
must
be
paid
in
full,
or
as
far
as
assets
will
admit.
These
are--parochial
and
local
rates,
due
at
date
of
receiving
order,
or
within
a
year
before;
assessed
land,
property,
and
income
tax,
up
to
April
5th
next
before
date
of
order,
not
exceeding
one
year's
assessment;
wages
and
salaries
of
clerks,
servants,
labourers,
or
workmen,
not
exceeding
£50,
due
for
four
months'
service.
[WHAT
IS
DONE
WELL
ENOUGH,
IS
DONE
QUICKLY
ENOUGH.]
1553.
Distraint
with
Bankruptcy.
Landlord
may
distrain
for
rent
either
before
or
after
bankruptcy,
but
only
for
one
year's
rent
if
after
bankruptcy.
Any
balance
beyond
one
year's
rent
must
be
proved
as
in
case
of
an
ordinary
debt.
1554.
Allowance
for
Maintenance.
Allowance
for
maintenance
may
be
made
to
bankrupt
by
the
Trustee
with
consent
of
committee
of
inspection,
for
his
support,
or
for
services
in
winding
up
the
estate.
Where
the
bankrupt
is
a
beneficed
clergyman,
the
Trustee
may
apply
for
sequestration
of
profits,
and,
with
concurrence
of
the
bishop,
allow
a
sum
equal
to
a
curate's
stipend
for
bankrupt's
services
in
the
parish.
In
the
case
of
officers
and
civil
servants,
in
receipt
of
salary,
the
Court
directs
what
part
of
bankrupt's
income
shall
be
reserved
for
benefit
of
creditors.
1555.
Declaration
of
Final
Dividend.
A
final
dividend
may
be
declared
when
the
Trustee
and
committee
of
inspection
consider
that
as
much
of
the
estate
has
been
realised
as
can
be
done
fairly
without
needlessly
protracting
the
bankruptcy.
