up of Duffield Transport, Ltd., Colwick Road, Nottingham, was made by Mr. Justice Wynn-Parry, in the Chancery Division, on Monday, on the petition of Mr.. John William Leverton, farmer, Langworth Grange, Coningsby, Lines, a debenture-holder.

Mr. G. B. Parker, for Mr. Leverton, said the amount owing Was just under £9,000.
