Bankrupt trader's certificate refused amid alleged reckless trading
In a detailed case at the Court of Bankruptcy the warehouseman of Milk Street Cheapside faced objections to his certificate. The examiner cited trading excesses of £40,000 to £50,000 and debts of £13,000 to £14,000 against assets of £300 to £400. His capitally borrowed start and dealings with consignments from France and Scotland were cited. The commissioner withheld the certificate though guarded time limits might allow interim protection.
