The Alamance Insurance and Real Estate Co. of Burliugton has been cited to appear before Judge Johnson J. Hayes in Greensboro, to shour cause why it should not be declared bankrupt. The hear ing is set for next Monday. It will be a great hardship to the many stockholders, those in debted to the company and oth ers, should it be fouud necessary to rule against the concern. The real estate concerns of Burlington have contributed in large measure to the wonderful progress the city has made in the past twenty and more years. The first of these companies to be organized was the Piedmont Trust Co., launched by James W. Murray. He was in fact the pioneer, and planned well, but a tragic death ended his actviities. Later the Alamance Ins. & R. E. Co. and the Central Loan & Trust Co. were organized. The Piedmont waned and about two years ago went into the hands of a receiver. The Alamance and Central weut to the rescue aud took up many of the suourities of the Piedmont, and in some measure quieted the panicy feeling created oy the failure of the Piedmont But their burden was heavy, for besides they had put large sums in developments, which are usually slow in yielding returns. The Central succumbed a few mouths ago. This intensified the situation with the Alamauce, which has battled bravely under the pressure. Naturally, under the circum stances, those having placed their money with the Alamance wanted it. Although the move has been made to place the company in a process of liquidation, it iB hoped it will be able to show to the sat isfaction of the court that the step is-not necessary to save the creditors harmless. The big part these companies have played in the upbuilding of Burliugton is realized by few. They havegoue out and gathered in idle money and put it at work. They have built a thiiving oUy. Not only have they helped the town-dwellers to build homes, but other thousands in the coun try have been aided in their ef forts to buy farm homes and equip them aud get on their feet. But when the stress comeB, mauy of those who have been the bene ficiaries suddenly forget all about the past. Eli Whitnev Calf Cluh Meeting.
