MIXED DOUBLES

In an interview with the press, M. Hough drew attention to the following facts; that "Tls. 135,000 was to be paid at once to Mr. Raven," that the sum was to be written off the books of the bank over the period of six years," "that at that time the bank did not owe him (Mr. Raven) any money." all of which went to show that the bank, was insolvent at that time and, in his opinion, Mr. Raven must have been aware of the

situation.
