Bzroits Ma.

There were only four bail oases on the list. The @sorrel
courts will resume their sittings on Thursday work, the let
of November.
Ix nu RENTON NICHOLSON.—APPLYING von BEM
This insolvent, a well known personage, applied to be ad-
mitted to bail till his hearing in November. Mr. Cooke
supported the application.
Mr. Commissioner Hurls, on reference to the judgment
paper, observed that several persons had sued the insolvent.
Mr. Cooke remarked that they had done so. Several of
the amennte were small, and proceedings had been adepted
in tke County Courts against the insolvent, for which he
was now prepared to give bell.
The learned Commissioner observed that the broker had
not been able to gain admittance to the hones, 36, Bow-
street, it being locked up. The insolvent thought that, as
there was neither knocker nor bell, the officer could not
make himself heard.
Mr. Cooke said the officer had gained admittance and
made the required valuation. The property was claimed,
and there wee an interpleader issue.
Mr. Commissioner Harris—Well, Mr. Nicholson, how
many times have you been a bankrupt (referring to the
entry on the belaisce-sheet) ?
Insolvent—Once, sir.
Mr. Commissioner Harris—And how often have yea ap-
plied to this court ?
lasolvent—Three times.
Mr. Commissioner Harris—Have you not been four times ?
The insolvent thought not so many. He added that,
sines his last appearance, he had paid 5,0001. off his old
debts.
Mr. Cooke said that it was always regarded with favour by
the eourt when a man paid off his former debts. Besides
dealing with the same parties the insolvent had paid off his
old debts, 4,6741. 19s 9d.
The proposed sureties expressed their readiness to become
bail, and proved their sufficiency to ball the insolvent (or
1,0001.
Mr. Commissioner Harris inquired the amount of the debts
in the present schedule ?
The insolvent said the debts and liabilities were about
6,0001.
Mr. Cooke said, after deducting the debts twice entered
they would be about 6,0001., and there wee 2,8101. owing to
the insolvent.
In answer to the court, the bail said they knew the Wei-
vent, and on the conclusion Mr. Cooke remarked that Mr.
Nicholson was not altogether unknown to the world.
Mr. Commissioner Harris—He is certainly known to a
good many creditors—(a laugh) ;—he was also known to
the records of the Court of Bankruptcy, and the Insolvent
Debtor's Court.
The court accepted the bell in the sum of 1,0001, and the
discharge was issued to the 12th November, the day ap-
pointed for the hearing._
