DISCHARGE OPPOSED
CASE STOOD DOWN BANKRUPT’S SOLICITOR'S DEALINGS. [ Per Press Association. ] CHRISTCHURCH, Nov. 14. Herbert Kirk McDougall, a solicitor, applied to Mr Justice Adams to-day for his discharge from, bankruptcy. The application was opposed by Mr P. S. Oliver, who claimed that he had been engaged by McDougall as a trainer of racehorses, and had not received his wages. The defence to the claim was that Oliver was nqf employed as a trainer for wages, but was a partner in the ownership of the horses. His Honour said he thought it very undesirable that a practising solicitor, especially when his finances were in such a state as McDougall’s, should be mixed up in such things, and the application was stood down until the next sitting of the Court.
