Page reacquired Intelligencer in an auction sale on Saturday June 9, 1860, after Moore had defaulted on notes he issued to Page to buy the paper in January 1859; after that auction, Moore refused to surrender the subscription list and office's tools, issuing instead another newspaper, the Petersburg Daily Times, on following Monday, using the Intelligencer list; Page obtained a court order for that list and warned Intelligencer's patrons against paying Moore for any debts now owned by him. Page was able to resume publication on July 1st, with Bolling as his partner and paper's editor, so Intelligencer was, in actuality, suspended from June 11th, the date most sources report as change in title of the paper by Moore. - lineage_title: Petersburg Intelligencer
