nature had ec.uorð some time since i while the other member of the Board, notably the Chairman, Mr. Shaw, had really done as much work for the creditors as if they had been simply creditors themselves. Therefore in mens tibsing that some of the directors possessed the necessary information and the requisite qualifie ations for acting for the creditors, he did not think he went out of his way ; but at the same. time he desired it to be understood that he would nint press the names of the directors in the slightest degree, but, on the other hand he hoped that those present would feel they bad absolute freedom in the matter of choosing committees men, (Chren),

Mr. Hulle then said he would disclaim any Intention of making any suggestion against the Chairman, hat at that fast meeting a very great deal was cut and dried. (Hear hear cries of "No ne"). Of course he did not blame the organisers of the meeting, for ble experience of these affair was that the people concerned were very apt to be led. They came without any ideas of their own to hear what was proposed to them, and it was very difficult for men of busi. ners to deal with them. In order to commence the real business of the meeting he would pro- pose, the name of a gentleman whom, he had known for a great number of years to serve as the Committee. His name was Mr. Drury, He (the speaker) had known Mr. Drury for many years as being connected with mercantile affairs in India, and knew that he was a deponi- tor in the bank to the extent of over £7,000 (Applause)
