  • Notes 
    • As reported last week a meeting of creditors of Alf, Kaufman, insolvent, was held in the assignee's office on Tuesday afternoon. The meeting appointed inspectors and a motion was carried to await the offer of a compromise inside of a week. The assets, as read by the assignee, are about $16,000 and the liabilities $23,000. We understand there are quite a few mortgages on the property, chattels and others, and as it appears at present the failure must be a genuine smash.

      The New Hamburg Independent 13 Mar 1896
