DEBTS
Artist And Not A
Business Man”
"The whole trouble is that he is an artist, not a business man." sald Mr. P. Spring recently when applying at London Bankruptcy Court for the discharge of Mr. Louis Joseph Henry Tussaud.
Mr. Tussaud, whose address is Lancaster-place, W.C., was stated to have been ill since 1933 and unable to attend to his affairs. He
failed in July, 1923, with liabilities of £731. and no assets had been re- covered.
Mr. Bruce Park, the Official Re- ceiver, sald that Mr. Tussaud also failed in December. 1893, when conducting a wax model exhibition in the provinces. No assets were disclosed in that bankruptcy, and no dividend was paid to creditors, whose claims were returned at £2.845.
Mr. Tussaud was granted his dis- charge from those proceedings in February, 1895, subject to a the
pension of two years.
