Syllabus

<p>1. Bankruptcy — In voluntary Proceedings — Qualification of Petitioner.</p> <p>A creditor is not disqualified, from filing a petition in bankruptcy against the debtor because of the receipt of a payment more than four months previously, which, if made within that time, would have been preferential, but is not so under Bankr. Act July 1, 1898, c. 541, § 60a, 30 Stat. 562 [U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 3445], as amended by Act Feb. 5, 1903, a 487, § 13, 32 Stat. 799 [ü. S. Comp. St. Supp. 1903, p. 416],</p> <p>2. Same — Rehearing—Grounds.</p> <p>A rehearing will not be granted on pretense of reconsidering a case on the merits, but for the real purpose of reviving the petitioner’s right of appeal, the time for taking an appeal having expired. If entitled to relief for that purpose, the facts must be shown in the petition.</p>
