Chesapeake and Ohio Canal faces protest over 1878 repair bonds sale
In the U S Circuit Court Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company fights approval of an agreement for selling repair bonds of 1878 arguing the plan is unnecessary and illegal. The case centers on a 1844 mortgage that gave priority to older bonds and alleges misapplied revenues funded alleged improvements. The petition seeks foreclosure of 1844 mortgage and a receiver if the sale proceeds.
