The taxed costs awarded after the bankruptcy were not a debt provable in bankruptcy under section 34, and section 12 restricts only creditors owed provable debts; therefore section 12 did not require leave and the master's ruling that leave was required was set aside; appeal allowed with costs to the applicant.
