COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)

RE W. P. SMITH.

This bankrupt was a tailor, formerly of Woodhouse•place,
Stepney. He now applied for his release from custody.
The debts were £22l—no assets. When the bankrupt ap-
plied to pass his examination, Mr. Commissioner Goulburn
suspended the order of discharge for 6 months, giving pro-
tection for three months. The protection expired a short
time since, and Mr. T. Beard, acting on behalf of a creditor,
had arrested the bankrupt on a ca sa.
Mr. Beard now opposed the bankrupt's release.
His Honour said he should not interfere with any order
made by Mr. Commissioner Goulburn, and refused to
grant the release.
RE HUNTER AND FERRIS.---11EVVY FAILURE,
_ _

This was an adjourned exaamination meeting of these
bankrupts, who were alkali manufacturers in Mark-lane
The debts are about £15,000.

Mr. Linklater now applied that the bankruptcy should be
annulled by the consent of creditors, £5,000 assets having
been received, to pay 7s. in the pound to the creditors ; and
both bankrupts had entered into an undertaking to pay the
separate creditors 7s. 6d. in the pound.

His Honour deemed this a satisfactory arrangement, and
the proceedings in bankruptcy were therefore annulled.

IN RE JONES

This bankrupt was a grocer, at Brompton, and this was
a dividend meeting.

The debts amount to £1,201, and through the exertions of
Mr. Sidney Chidley assets have been realized by which the
creditors will be paid a dividend of 2s. 6d. in the pound.
