OFFICIAL LIQUIDATION.
SOME SEVERE COMMENTS. By Telegraph —Press Association. Wellington, Saturday. Mr, Simpson, Official Assignee, referring yesterday to the case of the business of Norrow and Co., which has been placed in his hands for liquidation, said it was the worst cose of the kind he had ever known. Francis Rowe was the only member of the firm who attended. The ereditors were mainly jewellers. Norrow and Co. advertised goods for sale on deposit, and it was alleged that, although in many cases money was sent, goods were not forwarded, and in those instances where goods were forwarded they were not worth the m6ney paid. It was also alleged that all the money had been drawn from the bank without the purchase by the firm of goods being completed. The meeting closed after the Assignee had undertaken to consult a solicitor. The Assignee told Rowe that if he attempted to leave the Dominion it would be at his own risk.
