Receiver for paving company in Baltimore court action
Judge Lumpkin appoints W R Tichenor temporary receiver for the Williams Block Pavement Company after it failed to fulfill contracts with the city to pave North Avenue between Peachtree and Williams streets. American Bonding and Trust Company seeks enforcement, claiming repair and tar coating are required for a ten year period and that the firm has not answered notices. Pensioned stockholder Grant is named as solvent, while officers deny knowledge of company records. The petition seeks a permanent receiver and orders to repair and maintain the pavement and recover unpaid subscriptions.
