Re Barton. Sutton Valence.

This was a meeting for the last examination of the bankrupt, James Barton, of Sutton Valence, brewer.

Messrs. Church and Co., agent for Messrs. Hart and Kipping, solicitors, of Maidstone, appeared for the trade assignee, Mr. John Boucher, of East Sutton, maltster.

The bankrupt's debts are only about £400, and the assets consist of good debts £50; doubtful, £70; and property, about £150. It appeared that the bankrupt had not completed his balance-sheet in sufficient time to file the same, and the Court accordingly adjourned his examination until the 4th of February next, and granted him renewed protection in the meantime.
