Before as well as since the amendment of section 2 of the Bankruptcy Act, by adding subsection 20, the court of bankruptcy in any district has had “ancillary jurisdiction over persons or property within their respective territorial limits in aid of a receiver or trustee appointed in any bankruptcy proceedings pending in any other court of bankruptcy.

Consequently this court has jurisdiction to enter a decree upon a decree of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, to aid the trustee appointed by that court to enforce that decree; it being admitted that the identity of the parties is the same, and that the defendant has not turned over to the trustee the sum of $10,000 in obedience to that decree, and he having moved from that district into this district.
Let a decree be entered accordingly.
