_

The baakrapts were sharetrokers, at Liverpool; their
Cu. has been before the coast se repeatedly that its main
features are fusilier to the public This wee as adjourned
onetime for the last 'mut lotion.

Mr. E. Jena again appeared for the Liverpool Commer-
cial &skies Company and for the South Barters Railway ;
Mr. Liaktmer for one of the assignee*; and Mr. Lawrence
for the bankrupts.
Mr. lames said the aeons% were now more ansatisfactoty
than before; there were three tdlanwsheete, a stipples:en.
tarry one bevies been filed on the 28:h of March ; and Mr.
Ball, the accountant (of the firm of Quitter, Ball, and Co.),
had mooned that the accounts were still oneatistectory.
The first question would arise on a sum of 7,6781., returned
by the bankrupt Pritchard ea dam from Mrs. Maria B trio+,
of Liverpool, his mother-in:law, in respect of 70 York and
Berwick preference shams, to the joint estate. Pritchard
bad first represented this debt so due to himself, and had
now transferred it to the joist estate.
His Honour migrated that this sight only be a different
way of stating the accounts, which malty made no d.fferenee
to Ile banknept (Pritchard), he himself haring nothing,
though it might mate • difference to the creditors on the
different estates, impposicg that something was to be egad zed
out :Odds Maria Berlow. There did not appear any ground
for imputiag improper motive. to the bankrupt in this alte-
ration. which had probably been done to comply with the
dquisitions of the tediums.
Xr. VDUs's, mid he appeared to oppose for Mr. Morgan,
one of the assignees. He had nadermood the bankrupt to
admit, on a former occasion, that he had used the name of
Maria &Wow merely to over his own share traosactious.
The ba, krupt denied having made that statement. What
he had said we*, that Mr. M'Gregor had bad share trans-
scams ander that name to the amount of some 2,0001.
The Commissioner—And the whole of the transactions In
_

Barlow's name, including buying' sad selling', amount to
Dom millions i

Bankrupt—lt is a very large amount. certainly. In
answer to tee Mons from his Honoer, he maid the original
firm Oran tusyth and Pritchard ;be had been Fonyth's
clerk eight month/ before joining him; the partnership
commenced ia 1839, and continued till December, 1844,
+heo it was dim >bred by deed. He was then in businua
alone till October, 1848, when he took Dale into partnership ;
that partnership continued tali the bankruptcy in May,
1849. His tremulous with Mrs. Barlow commenced in
1840. Forsyth had been her broker before she acted uad•r
witness's advice. She afterwards had large transactions, the
result of wt ich up to the dissolution of the partnership of
Forsyth and Pritchard, we in her favour upwards of 2,0001.
That sum was never paid over. The transactions continued,
and win 9.4001. to her advantage, none of which was pail.
Doting hie partnership with Dale, the transactions
were against her, and she was a loiter of upwards of 7,0001.
This left her still a creditor for 4,0001., supposing all the
transactions to have been blended. In his first balance sheet
he did not represent her as a exelitor for that sum, which
had been transferred into the transit arsenal and gone in
reduction of losses; it wee included In a sum of 20,3741.
stated in the first balance sheet. The transeetime ia
Barlow's name were to an immense amount, bat did not
cover any other transactions. In this transit aeseunt Mrs.
Barlow's name did not appear, though orbs/ names did.
There was a reference by *turfs to the name In another ao•
aunt. Her name did not appear them because her seemat
we not settled. The transfer was nude without seaselting
Mrs. Barlow. The shares which should kayo ►eea datum
to her were stopped in transits by Mean. Mosti beakers,
of Liverpool Would not state whether Mn. Barlow was
solvent or not. As her eon-in-law he thought be had a
general authority to do what he doomed best for her.
Mr. L it/ranee submitted that the quietism now relied
rather applied to the bankrupt's emdmt, and were matter
icr the certificate meeting ; and that the mandaation ought
now to be passed.
Mr. James said that sines the last meeting entries to the
amount of 200,0001. had been made is the books ; and he
wished for an adjournment to examine these entries.
Pritchard said these entries had been made to explain the
state of Mrs. Barlow's accunts with the three firma.

Kr. Ball, scoonatsat. stated that he hid sot had tioto to
eieUliee these •ew accounts._ _ _

observed that ats system of repeated adjourn-
ats might be carried on till it became anaemia'. TM
result of his (liquify tato Mrs. Bulow's amounts was not to
leave an impend= against the brinkrupt, but the untrary.
He was not satisfied with • general statement that an ad-
journment was asetemy.
Mr. Ball farther stated that the new outfits mounted to
186,000 i., and headh not had smilloient time to iametioate
them. Art entirely new est of balance sheets bad been la,
sad his attention te them was required. He had been ant
mind la shoat ileptsmbsr last, sad had made • report in
February, but the altered form of the amounts reqaired
farther imeetigstlem.
After a ainemestiom,
His Honour said he did not thine that, with regard to
Mrs. Barlow's easseats, there was any mossaty for further
emanation In this court.
Mr. Ball was farther examined by Mr. Junes, and de-
posed that be bad not had sufficient time to investigate
trther portion, of the amounts, which had been kept staled
up to the last fertaight. These were Pritehard's own
aesoust, that tithe Liverpon Communal Bank, and that of
Mr. ll`Grimer.
Mr. Whitmore, the otßeLl assl said that be was not
saddled as to the mods of statiag the accounts. A gross
an. was put down, with sable( to show whether it ought
to ha charged to losses or expenses.
Ultimately, his Honour said he was disinclined to farther
ajouramant, having great confidant in Mr. Pritchard's
nastily ; he could not ray he understood the explanations
which had been given ; and es the olitdal assignee was not
satisfied with them, and as the opposing partite demanded a
further investigation, he thought he could not rinse it in
reference to an item of 3,3781., put down is the losses, to
which objection had been taken.
TM bankrupt gave some explanation of the Liverpool
Commercial Bank account, and mid that he had lost 17,0001.

The Commissioner—What are they worth sow
