COMMITTEE'S STATEMENT
FOR H. C. BAY CREDITORS
July 14, 1928
SAMPLE OF WINDOW SERVICE
Sale of Assets for $16,000 Announced and Com-
mittee States That a Good Many Creditors
Have Not Sent Proof of Claims.
"A sale of the Chicago assets of the H. C. Bay
Co., Chicago, was recently held and the receiver
obtained a guaranteed bid of $15,000. The person
making the bid is going to resell the assets on July
19 and of course if he should obtain more than this,
the amount the receiver obtains will - likewise be
greater, but in any eyent we are assured of $16,000
net," is the announcement of the committee of the
creditors:
"The person making the bid has assumed all lia-
bility for rent," insurance, etc., on and after July 5
and consequently this obligation, which amounted
to some $833 a month, has been eliminated.
"Mr. Bay has returned to Chicago and he will be
examined in a day or two. A good many of the
creditors have not as yet sent in the proofs of claims
which were attached to our letter above referred to
and it is imperative that this be done immediately, in
order that there may be unanimity of action by the
creditors. Therefore, if you have not as yet sent in
your proof of claim to the undersigned, please do so
at once and in the event that you did not receive a
proof of debt, please notify the secretary of the com-
mittee and he will see that one is forwarded to you
promptly. As we have heretofore advised you, orig-
inal notes or other instruments should be attached
to the proof, if your claim is based thereon, but if
on an open account an itemized statement should be
attached."
The statement is signed by Melvin L. Gibbard, 137
South La Salle street, Chicago, secretary of the com-
mittee, and Alfred L. Smith, C. D. Morgan, T. B.
Coppock, Hal P. Shearer, W. S. Cheney, H. C
