A PECULIAR BANKRUPTCY CASE.
[by TELEGRAPH.—press association.] Wellington, Thursday. At a meeting of the creditors of D. G. Moore, a driver, it was shown thab the bankrupt had paid £500 to become a partner in carrying on a business in Wellington, but in a short time tho business got bad. He sold out his' share for £25. The solicitor for tho debtor said the matter ought to be gone into fully, and the estate ought at lease to pay 60s in the £. The Official Assignee said the bankrupt was a very foolish man to sell out of the firm the way he had done. At first ho thought there had been collusion, but this had since been disproved. The meeting decided to investigate the balance-sheet.
