IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE
UNITED STATES FOR THE
SOUHERN DISRUPT OF TEXAS
In Bankruptcy.
In the matter of («• W. Cook Bank-
rupt.
Respectfully represents C„ H. Big-
den. duly appointed trustee of the
aforesaid bankrupt.
That for the following reasons to
wit after having .the stock of gro-
ceries invoiced and appraised have
1 made diligent inquiries as to the
■filing of sail! stock of groceries and
the fixtures in hulk separate or to-
gether and have failed to get any of-
' fers worthy of consideration but in
interviewing retail merchants I find
that they would take the stock should
! it be sold at private sale in parrels
which I believe that we could real-
I ize almost the amount of the ap-
praised value; find in invoicing the
fixtures that a lien is held against
them by firms that sold the fixture*
to bankrupt but recommended it to he
to the best interest of the creditors
to sell the fixtures where a sufficient
equity appears subject to the lien and
threfore the same should he sold sep
| irately.
It is desireable and for the best
interest to the estate to sell at private
sale that portion of tjie said estate.
WHEREFORE he prays that he
j may be authorized to sell said proper-
ty at private sale.
