    Case No. 7,339.
    The JOHN E. HOLBROOK.
    [7 Ben. 356.]
    
    District Court, S. D. New York.
    June, 1874.
    R. D. Benedict, for libellant.
    W. R. Beebe, for claimant.

   BLATCHFORD, District Judge.

I think that, under section 33 of the shipping act, the libellant is entitled to double pay for ten days. Under section G1 of the same act, wages due to a seaman cannot be attached, and a-payment of wages to a seaman, nothwithstanding an attachment, is valid. Let a decree be entered for the libel-lant for $223 and costs.
