Per Press Association.
AUCKLAND, Oct. 11. At the Magistrate's Court to-day, the widow of a soldier applied for the reopening of a loan -transaction with Charles Goldsteinj trading as the Empire Loan and Finance Co. On January ■Ith last, the soldier and his wife negotiated a loan of £20, on which £7 interest was to be charged, the whole repayable by fourteen monthly instalments of £2. The sum of 30s. was paid in expenses, the borrower receiving £18 10s. Mr. Singer, for the defendant, stated that his client had received up to date, in respect of the loan, the sum of £18. In consideration of the fact that the woman's husband had been killed and that she was now in distressing circumstances, the company thought the matter was one in which it should accept the £18 already paid in settlement of the whole amount due under the agreement/ —The application was therefore struck out.
