Opinion

DILLON, Circuit Judge,

referring to the somewhat unsatisfactory state of the authorities cited in the note, observed, that upon consideration, the court is of the opinion that a person who is so unsound in mind as to be wholly incapable of managing his affairs cannot in that condition commit an act for which he can be forced into bankruptcy by his creditors, against the objection of his guardian. Whether such a person, on the petition of himself or guardian, may, if insolvent, go into voluntary bankruptcy, I he court gives no opinion. Affirmed.
