OF Panther Branch Club, Inc, of
Raleigh, N. c., upon a petition ill.
ed on March 20, 1943, it appeared
that William T. Harding was then,

parent owner of one-half inter.
est IN seven other of said bonds
(the remaining interest being own
ed by H. E. Satterfield, who held
the bonds. The seven bonds first
referred to above appear to be
lost. The record of the Harding
Bankruptcy contains no reference
to them and they apparently were
not administered in this proceed
ing. The bonds in which Harding
owns a one half interest have been
filed by Mr.. Satterfield in the
Panther Branch Club proceeding
and on behalf of himself and Mr..
Harding.
The said bonds have par value
OF $4,000, and it appears that a.
of approximately so per
cent will be paid out of the assets
OF the Panther Branch Club, Inc.
on bonds upon which claims are
duly filed and allowed.
Mr.. West has called these cir
to the attention of the
Court and the creditors of William
l. Harding are hereby informed of
them. If Mr.. Harding's seven bonds
and his one-half interest in the
other seven bonds are in fact and
indeed unadministered assets of

proper proof thereof may be made
BY the Trustee of his estate, the
dividends paid thereon will 60 to
ais estate in Bankruptcy. Unless
the missing seven bonds are To-
Gated, the Trustee in Bankruptcy
could not prove thereon without fill.
ng an indemnity bond. If this
ourported asset of the Harding es-
tate should not be administered
oy his Trustee in Bankruptcy be-
cause of inability to make proper
proof thereon or for any other
reason, an order might then be
made abandoning said interest,
with the interest of Harding in the
said bonds would revert to him.
Upon the foregoing, notice is
hereby given. to the creditors of
the above named estate tina:
meeting thereof will be neld in the
office of the undersigned Referee
