MEETING OF CREDITORS
A meeting of creditors in the bankrupt estate of David Crombie, bootmaker, Wellington, was held yesterday before Mr. S. Tansley, Acting-Official Assignee. The ouly creditor, Robert Hamilton, of Rotoiti, was represented by Mr. Douglas Jackson. In a statement, bankrupt attributed his position to the fact that he had foolishly allowed a judgment to be taken out against him when he was not liable for the amount. Subsequently he was ordered to pay £10 per month, and as he was only earning £2 12s per week he was compelled to file his schedule. Robert Hamilton was the only creditor, and the amount involved was £81 6s. Mr. Jackson suggested that bankrupt's interest in a Government leasehold in the Wairoa Valley should be transferred to the creditor, and Mr. Tansley Said he was agreeable. The meeting ■wae adjourned sine die.
