se far progressed with the Investigation of
tlie allalrs of tlie estate that the appraisers, H.
Frank llrencman and Jehn F, Sencr, com
pleted tlielr report ready for filing te-day.
This exhibit and a statement of Mr. Sklles
as te tlie liabilities of the estate, se far as
brought te his notice, cemprise the first ro re ro
llable nud definite Information tlie public
lias received of tlie amount or assets and lia
bilities, or tlie dividend which Is likely te be
ebtained by creditors, nnd of the manner of
losses sustained by tlie Institution which
wrecked llie fortunes of Its mombers nnd
caused such heavy losses te their depositors.

Against this however tliere are otlsets,
claimed by dopjslters who have balances and
against whom notes nre held amounting te
Kstul.63, leaving net geed assets $51,115.81.
There nre nlse JAirJiiOS of notes that are con
sidered of "deubtrul" value.
Mr. Hendersen's real eskite, whieli is net
included iu this appraisement, consists or tlie
banking heuse en Duke street ; a tenement
heuse in this city; tliu rami in Salisbury;
a let en liast King street between his late
resldcnce nnd that m Mr. Nan man ; and
whatever erinterest in the property or Mr.
Nauinan shall have been determined te be
in the Hendersen estate. It is nlse claimed
that the late preierty eOIr. Jehn IC. Reed,
en ICast King street, and even the farm iu
IZast Karl, sold by bin estate, will go
te swell the asets available for the
creditors or the bank. The title te the
premises lately occupied by Mr. Hendersen,
as 11 private residence, corner or Iiiit King
nnd Ann, is lu his children, and what dispo
sition w ill Imi made or it remains te be seen.
TIIU I.IAnil.tTlHN.
The liabilities or the bank, consisting of
tlie obligations te depositors en certificate
or with running balances, overdrafts, ether
banks, etc, amount te $318,000 ; iu addition
te which Mr. Hendersen had private debts
of from 515,000 te S1S.0ih). As stated
Isifere, the largest individual creditor
lias claims for alwut 58,000, and from
that amount the depositors range down
te the smallest sum, and the claims are
held by- a very large number of persons,
scattered ever every section of the county.
WHAT WILL IT FAX'.
Ujien these skitemcnts of the assets and
the liabilities of the institution, some of
tlie lawyers, local financiers and creditors
have been figuring upon the proluble
dividend that will be finally received by (he
creditors. Ofcourse this cannot be definitely
ascertained ; there nre unsettled questions as
te ovvnershlp, interests, etl'scts Ac; litigation
may ensue as te rights Invelv oil, nnd the ex ex ex
ponse or settling the csLite Is as yet impossl impessl impossl
tile te determine.
Upen fair estimates, hewever, of what is
likely te be realized und well-founded con
jectures as te the final dsioltien ofthe in
terests involved, shrewd financiers reckon
that tlie final dividend will net be less than
twenty nor ever twcnty-tlve per cent, and
ene clese calculator gives 22 ierceuL as his
bcstJiidgmcuL
The exhibitor the inventory dees net frilly
