Leamington Spa Courier: Saturday 21st January 1888

Reading over the Depositions: On Monday, the reading over the transcripts notes of the public examination of Messrs. Greenway, Smith, and Greenway, took place at the Shire Hall, Warwick. The proceedings were taken by the Registrar (Mr. Brabazon Campbell) in public court, the Grand Jury Room of the Hall being used for the purpose. The Official Receiver (Mr. E. T. Peirson) also attended, and the following solicitors were present. Mr. Lloyd Chadwick (Messrs. Chadwick and Son, Warwick) representing the Trustee (Major Fosbery); Messrs. Pinsent (Messrs. Barlow, Smith and Pinsent, Birmingham) for Mr. Kelynge Greenway, and Mr. W. B. Sanderson (Warwick) for Mr. G.

If, in two or three years hence, the question came up, and his (Mr. Peirson’s) successor referred to the statements of affairs and found them incorrect, they would be of no use to him. Mr. Pinsent said it quite understood that one or two little alterations should be made, and there would be no objection to the statements being rectified in these respects … … (further discussion) … By the consent of the Registrar, Mr. Pinsent advised the debtor to add the following statement to the usual declaration made by a bankrupt upon the signing the notes of his examination: “The public examination having taken place upwards of six weeks ago, we are unable to state whether or no the transcript of the shorthand writer’s notes are quite correct, as there would appear to be certain omissions which it is now impossible to supply” … …
