HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 454 (R.S. Sec. 754).
Words "or by someone acting in his behalf" were added. This
follows the actual practice of the courts, as set forth in United
States ex rel. Funaro v. Watchorn, C.C. 1908, 164 F. 152; Collins
v. Traeger, C.C.A. 1928, 27 F.2d 842, and cases cited.
The third paragraph is new. It was added to conform to existing
practice as approved by judicial decisions. See Dorsey v. Gill
(App.D.C.) 148 F.2d 857, 865, 866. See also Holiday v. Johnston, 61
S.Ct. 1015, 313 U.S. 342, 85 L.Ed. 1392.
Changes were made in phraseology.
