SOLICITOR IN TROUBLE.
STATE OF CRISP’S BOOKS. [Per Press Association. i Dunedin, May 1. John Crisp, solicitor, of Palmerston, on remand, was brought up this morning and charged with failing to keep books within the past three years sufficiently setting forth his business transactions and financial position. Robert F. Algie, public accountant, said the hooks, failed sufficiently to disclose the financial position. Ho would say it was impossible at any time within the past three years to ascertain from the books accused’s position, and to obtain a clear and definite exposition would require a complete reconstruction of the accounts. The cash book had merer been correctly balanced and did not reconcile with the bank pass book. Crisp reserved his defence, and was committed for trial.
