Creditors’ Meeting
A meeting of creditors of Malcolm Joseph Bowden, formerly a fish-shop proprietor and now a factory hand, was adjourned sine die yesterday after both the bankrupt and a quorum of creditors had failed to attend. Mr Bowden had been adjudicated bankrupt on December 19 last. According to the bankrupt’s written statement—said to be incomplete—the sum of $1496 is owed to unsecured creditors, this being the apparent total deficiency. The statement gave as reasons for the bankruptcy reduced trading consequent on the high price and scarcity of fish, marital upset, and illhealth.
