(£1,535 12s. 5d. ranking for dividend), and assets estimated to produce £174 11s. 4d. took place at the London Bankruptcy Court,.on Wednesday last.

Between October, 1911, and January, 1912, he was manager of two provincial music-halls and a London cinematograph theatre, but only received about £60 in all for his services. In November, 1911, he entered into partnership with another person, with a view to their carrying on business together as music-hall managers and booking agents, but practically no business was done. In January, 1912, he and his partner became tenants of the Theatre Royal, Great Yarmouth, for twelve months, at a weekly rental of ten guineas, but, after having opened it as a cinematograph theatre, closed it at the expiration of three weeks. In October, 1909, he, in conjunction with other persons, had formed a company to carry on a musichall in Paris, which became moribund in or about March, 1911, and in connection with which he incurred a heavy loss. Debtor attributes his insolvency mainly to loss in connection with the last-mentioned company, but also to depreciation in the value of his household furniture and of debentures subscribed for by him early in 1909, to losses by betting, to his liability as surety for another person, and to his household and’ personal expenditure. he examination was eventually concluded. ——__-~30o____ KIRKBY’S NEW PALACE.
