The WALKER SALE Held UP
NF. Walker Files Petition In Bankrupt
Cy for Benefit Of All Creditors

The anticipated sale of the Walker
store building, stock Of goods, ETC.,
levied upon about a month ago by
sundry creditors of the firm of J. R.
Walker & Co. and the Walker Hard
ware Co., did not take place on Mon
day, the rule day for November, as
expected, and it is highly probable
that the matter will be held up in
the circuit court to be adjudicated
under the national bankruptcy act.
Mr.. j. R. Walker has recently filed
a petition in voluntary bankruptcy
and the same has been set for a hear
ing on the 18th of this month before
Judge Locke, of the U. S. court, in
Jacksonville.
1t is stated that the partner, Mr..
H. B. Mace, is not in favor of vOlun-
tary bankruptcy and may conclude
to contest that proposition. Mr..
Mace arrived here the first of this
week and when interviewed by The
STAR reporter stated that he had
nothing to give out at present. He
will first consult his attorney before
proceeding into the case, which is a
most unpleasant and trying one to
him.
Mr.. Walkers plea for bankruptcy
is based mainly on the fact that the
firm is involved to a considerable ex-
tent and many of the creditors have
claims that are now unsecured
against any of the property on &C
count of the several judgments that
have been entered against the firm
in the circuit court, the whole in
debtedness amounting to some thou
sands Of dollars, and he hopes by
placing the affairs in a referees
hands that all creditors may share
alike in the assets of the firm when
disposed of and also to facilitate his
entering into business again for him.
self.
We understand that there were
several parties who expected to bid
on the store building, as the location
is one of the most desirable business
sites in town, and persons from a dis
lance were also here for the purpose
of bidding on the stock had it been
sold Monday.
The sheriff's sale of both store
building and stock is now being adj
vertised for the first Monday in De-
cember. prior to which time this in
teresting case will come up for con-
sideratiOn in Jacksonville.
The sale was postponed by virtue
of a writ from the U. S. court at
jacksonville served upon Sheriff
Brown Monday morning by U. s
marshal, from Jacksonville.
