"How is it done ?" is the very pertinen question asked by a Timaru contemporary on the following statement of facts : — " One of the ' unfortunates,' after filing for his few paltry thousands, attended at the auction sale of his assets, and before he had received his discharge unblushingly made a sporting offer of £500 for assets amounting to over £3,000. After competing up to £1,400, a fit of modesty came over him, and he suddenly collapsed, exclaiming •I'm done !'"
