bankruptcy. The notices were issued
by Daily & Conley, lawyers of King
wood. These came as no surprise to
good many people here, who have
known for some time that Mr.. Bishops
affairs were considerably involved.
Among the principal creditors of Mr..
Bishop here are Valley Wood Work
ing Co., to whome he is indie bted to
the amount of about $4,000, Guy Hay
es is one of the creditors. His account
is $500. A local bank has considerable
of Mr.. Bishops paper. 1t is stated
here that Mr.. Bishop will be able to
pay nearly all of his indebtedness
and the petition in bankruptcy was
filed in order to secnre a settlement.

ly son of the late Hon. c. NJ. Bishop,
the well know tinancer and banker,
of Kingwood, who dyinga couple of
years ago, left quite a large fortune,
the son coming in for a big slice
