As the Civil Courts cannot act in less than 1 month and in the mean time the property will be disposed of which will deprive the laborers of their wages, the party who gave the bill of sale has since acknowledged it to be a fraud, but there is still no remedy in the civil courts to unless the laborers institute a suit and engage council, which they have not the means to do.
