  case provided in section four,  and  may  also,  at  any  time,  on  the
  petition of one or more creditors, showing misconduct or incompetency of
  the assignee, or on petition of the assignee himself, showing sufficient
  reason  therefor, and after due notice of not less than five days to the
  assignor, assignee, surety and  such  other  person  as  the  judge  may
  prescribe,  remove or discharge the assignee, and appoint one or more in
  his place, and order  an  accounting  of  the  assignee  so  removed  or
  discharged,  and  may  enjoin  such  assignee  from interfering with the
  assignor's estate, and make provision by order for the safe  custody  of
  the  same,  and  enforce  obedience  to  such  injunction  and orders by
  attachment; and, upon  the  discharge  of  the  assignee  upon  his  own
  application,  such assignee's bond shall be canceled and discharged. The
  new assignee shall give a bond, to be approved as  required  by  section
  six.  The  judge  shall  have  power,  by order, to require or allow any
  inventory or schedule filed to be corrected or amended.  The  judge  may
  also  require and compel, from time to time, supplemental inventories or
  schedules to be made and filed within such time as he  shall  prescribe,
  and to enforce obedience to all orders by attachment.
