Whenever any debtor shall assign his property for the benefit of his creditors, any creditor of such debtor, either by simple contract, specialty or in any other manner, may institute proceedings against the debtor, or the assignee named in the assignment, or both, or any other person properly party thereto, either to attack and set aside the deed of assignment or to enforce the provisions thereof, or for any other purpose whatever, without first obtaining and entering up judgment against the debtor upon the claim or demand so held by the creditor.
