Note: In England, until the year 1861 none but a
“trader”
could be made a bankrupt; a non-trader failing to meet
his liabilities being an
“insolvent”. But this
distinction was abolished by the Bankruptcy Act of
1861. The laws of 1841 and 1867 of the United States
relating to bankruptcy applied this designation
bankrupt to others besides those engaged in trade.
