Mr. D. Williams, Oficial Receiver, reported that Lord Terrington had prac tised as a solicitor at 11, Clarges Street, Mayfair, under the style of H. J. S. Woodhouse & Co., and he was also des- cribed as of Spinfield; Marlow."

REPLIES WHOLLY INADEQUATE.".

The Official Receiver understood that Lord Terrington left the country after knowledge that the Chancery Judge had directed that writ of ne exeat regno (a writ to prevent a person from leaving the realm to the damage of a person to whom he is indebted until he has given Security for the amount of the debt) should issue against him, although there was reason to believe that it had not actually been served.

Mr. Wooliner: Lord Terrington left.

EXCESSIVE INTEREST TO MONEY. LENDERS.

When the petition was lodged the court appointed the Official Receiver as interim receiver,, and at the request of the petitioner and some of the large creditors he (the chairman) appointed Messrs. Palmer (of Whinney & Co.) and Morland (Price, Waterhouse & Co.) as special managers to supervise the busi- ness and inspect the books.

Continuing, the Official Receiver-said- that he had received from Lord Terring- ton the forms containing his preliminary examination, which appeared, howevor, to be wholly inadequate. It was indeed difficult to believe that a solicitor with Lord Terrington's experience could not give more detailed information regarding his affairs.

BOOK DEBTS: £200,000.

With regard to his liabilities, he stated that it was impossible to state the amount without his booka His assets-com- prised book debts to which he attached the value of £200,000, and his failure, he said, was due to loans to clients who had failed to repay, to excessive interest to moneylenders and others, and to recent ill-bealth, also to certain very promising businesses having been ruined by the General Strike and then the coal strike:

He claimed to be perfectly solvent, sub- ject to realisation of the assets.

The Official Receiver stated, that Lord. Terrington had written from the Hotel Mirabeau, Monte Carlo, and à medical certificate had also been received from which it appeared that he was advised not to attempt to deal with any business for the moment.

It was obvious, added the Official Es- ceiver, from the large amounts owing to elients that there was something which called for immediate explanation from Lord Terrington regarding the applica tion of these moneys.
