Liverpool, Sept., 1864.
We deeply regret to inform you that, owing to the ex-

consequent inability to effect sales, we have been compelled
suspend payment.
t 14ven at the present low prices of general produce, and
aitlaß everything at the worst, we estimate our assets at
178 6d. in the pound— but we entertain a confident hope
that, with the forbearance of our friends, we shall be able
to 11`1 a larger dividend.
Under these circumstances we trust that those friends
Whose property we hold, and to whom we are under accept-
ance, will have no difficulty in renewing their bills until the
Produce can be more favourably realised.
In the meantime (acting under the advice of Messrs.
Bateson and Co., solicitors), we have placed our books in
the hands of Messrs. John Bewley and Son, accountants,
17110 will prepare a statement of our affairs, and as soon
all this can be done, they will esll a meeting of our
Creditors.
