LAW INTELLIGENCE

BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.

IN THE MATTER OF CRIBB AND CRIBB.
The bankrupts had carried on a very extensive
business as printing-ink manufacturers. They were
described as of Bloomsbury-court, Hoxton, of Cla-
rence Wharf. Regent's-park, and of Mitcham, at all
which places they had factories.
A solicitor, who appeared on behalf of the trade
assignees, wished to examine the bankrupts with re-
spect to certain property which they possessed at
Mitcham and Clarence Wharf, which had been taken
by a bill of sale by their brother, Benjamin Cribb, in
whose favour a warrant of attorney had been exe-
cuted previous to the fiat issuing.
Upon the bankrupt being called at the hour named
on the list, Edward Cribb alone answered, when
Mr. Commissioner EVANS censured the conduct of
the other bankrupt in not attending at the hour named,
and said where such indifference towards the Court
and the creditors was manifested it would be right to
give bankrupts to understand that their protection
would be withdrawn.
Edward Cribb, in reply to the Court, said that the
facts upon which the solicitor sought information
would be found in his balance-sheet.
Mr. Commissioner EVANS—Nonsense, Sir ; there
is no such statement in the schedule. on't think
you will escape by such equivocation.
The bankrupt replied that his brother kept the
books, and could enter into details more fully.
Mr. Commissioner EVANS —And for that very rea-
son his absence is the more culpable.—The case was
then adjourned.
