AUGUST 20, 1927 ------ ing the Maritimes Find There Much in Common With the Old Lands, Espec- ially In P.E.L Charlottetown, P.EI., Aug, 19. --County aiid town names in the Maritime Provinces were so fami- liar to English poultrymen who re- cently paid a flying visit to the Atlantic corner of Canada that they almost felt they were back in their home land. It is a faet that in the matter of nomenclature the early settlers of the Maritimes displayed little or- iginality, either adopting the In- dian names or christening their new discoveries after the shires and villages from which they came, Thus Nova Scotia today boasts such towns as Halifax, Windsor and Chester, while among New Bruns- wick counties one finds Kent, Westmoreland and Northumberland. "Hearing these names spoken on every side made the country through which we passed seem strangely fa- millar,"" remarked Sidney H. Lew- er, editor of a British poultry periodical, 'Of course the topo- graphy in many districts was in strong contrast to that to which we were accustomed, but in Prince Ed- ward Island the illusion was very complete. Prince Edward Island might be a section of English countryside, the farms and the methods of cultivation are very similiar and made us feel com- pletely at home." Several of the touring delegates to the recent World Poultry Con- gress also found family associa- tions in the names of towns and districts through which the special train bore them, The Hon. Flor- ence Amherst particularly enjoyed a visit to Amherst, Nova Scotia, he- cause the quiet little town derived its name from her distinguished an- cestor, General Amherst, who play- ed an important part in the Brit- ish conquest of French Acadia, now Nova Scotia. and New Bruns- wick, Very many Maritime names do honor to English Royalty of the past, the House of Hanover, hav- ing heen particularly favored in this regard.

B. Of course there are a host of George streets, while Kings and Queens abound on every side, Fredericton probably this street-naming tradition to the limit when it christened six lel streets Queen-Charlotte, George, Regent, Brunswick, thoroughly honoring the Family of the day. Of course the name of the capital itself is a graceful tribute to ome of the imported German lords. It supplanted the more attractive name of the original French settlement «Ste, Anne's Point. In the same way the-French settlement of Port Royal, Nova Scotia, became Anna- polis under British rule by courtesy to Queen Anne, While the English members of the international party will miss this link with the Old Country as they proceed westward on their trans-Canada pilgrimage, they are expecting to enjoy the wonders in store for them to the full. Wiani- peg, Medicine Hat and Vancouver are names which bring to mind no memories of the home across the Atlantic, but they will doubtless give the visitors a time nevertheless, CREDITORS PICTON FINANGIAL CRASH WILL LOSE MONEY No Trace of Money--Aiuto Dealer's Operations Explained -- Toronto, Aug. 20.--Further de- tails of the Picton financial crash, wherein Ralph H, Raynor, a prom- inent automobile dealer of the town, is said to have victimized in- vestors and dealers of the Province for upwards of $223,000, were sup- plied yesterday by G, W, De C, O'Grady, manager of the Commer: cial Finance Corporation, which Is the largest of the Toronto compan- jes affected by the failure. According to Mr. O'Grady, the Commercial Finance 'Corporation was backing Raynor in the whole- sale .purchase of automobiles for over $59,000 at the time of the failure. The company would receive 20 per cent, of the cost of cars forwarded to Raynor, in cash, and would receive the dealer's trust receipts covering 80 per cent, of the wholesale price, The $59,000 for which the cor- poration are creditors was spread over 63 automobiles which Raynor had in his show rooms, These were .mostly Chryslers, with a few Studebakers, "The loss in our case is fully covered by bond," said Mr. O'Grady, "and as far as we are concerned it is only the insurance companies who will lose." It- was further explained by Mr. O'Grady that the above method of backing motor dealers was very common and that the Commercial Finance Corporation existed mais'y for the carrying on of this busi- ness. The company, he said, had every reason to believe that Ray- por was reliable, Bank officials, peighbors, everybody spoke highly of him, and it was not until July 1st that there appeared to be any- thing seriously wrong. It was on that date, Mr. O'Grady explained, that Raynor sent the company a cheque for over $20,000 drawn on the Royal Bank of Can- ada, The cheque was returned, "pot sufficient funds," and this was the first inkling that the Commereial Finance Corporation had of the im- pending crash. It was explained that most of the 63 cars advanced to Raynor had been disposed of, but it was not known whether or mot their new owners would have to stand the loss. The exact steps which Raynor took with reference to these ears would have to be traced, Mr. O'Grady said. Little Left for Creditors According to A. W. Roebuck, solicitor, custodian and receiver of the Raynor estate, the total assets of the bankrupt automobile dealer amount to $654,000. These include cash on hand and accounts receiv: able, $14,000; inventories, parts and cars, $23,000; furniture, #8,- 200; real estate and miscellaneous, $8,800; other items, $5644.27. Mr. Roebuck explained that Mr. Ray- nor's fine residence in Belleville was heavily mortgaged and that his real estate holdings 'were therefore small. » With reference to the $63,000 for which A. P. Hyatt is a creditor, Mr. Roebuck stated that Hyatt loaned Raynor the money in cold cash. thus Royal royal carried '|! Re | Mr. Roebuck was unable to offer any suggestion as to where the money went to. "Raynor," he said, | "was adverse to horse racing and the stock market, and did mot' spend more than $25,000 a year on his personal and house expem- ses. With reference to the arrest of J. P. Williams and the comspiracy . charge lodged against him, Mr. Roebuck declared that on the facts way by law. Williams, he said, | Williams copld not be held in any bought for Raymor a car in Ray- Williams by motes,, but he obtained por's garage. Raynor was to pay credit on the Williams' purchase for more ftock, and then without Wil- liams' knowledge sold the car. ' 4 .
