MDfTTXLlII. 1 I < A ro a- . o r o rt I d (4 REPORT BY THE DIRECTORS OF THE SCOTTISH MERCANTILE SOCIETY, TO THE MEMBERS. FIRST ISSUED IN APRIL 1842 AS AN INTRODUCTION TO THE FIRST PART OF THE SOCIETY'S RECORD OF SEQUESTRATIONS, NOW RE-ISSUED WITH THE SECOND PART OF THE RECORD. The Members of the Scottish Mercantile Society are well aware of the obstacles which long embarrassed the Directors. The most formidable of those difficulties may at length be considered to have been overcome ; and the Directors now in office feel that the exertions so successfully made, both by their predecessors and by the other Members of the Society, bind them to increased activity and zeal in the discharge of their functions. Their attention has been specially directed to one department of the Society's business, which is, perhaps, mure important than any other, but which hitherto, from causes of various sorts, it has not been possible to carry out so far as wj^s considered desirable both by the Directors and by the other Members. They allude to that system of collecting information in regard to Scottish bankruptcies— their management and their results— which is described in several leading articles of the Society's Constitution, and which it has always been intended to bring into operation as speedily as circumstances would permit. The execution of this design was at first impeded by two causes— the state of the Bankruptcy Laws, which afforded to creditors no sufficient means of investigation,— and the state of the Society's connexions and resources, which, in the earliest stages of its progress, were necessarily far from being extensive. In both of these particulars great improvements have taken place. The new Law of Sequestration in Mercan- tile Bankruptcy, besides introducing other beneficial changes, has put into the hands of creditors means which may enable them to exercise with efficiency their undoubted right of watching strictly over everv step taken in the administration of the bankrupt's estate. The advantages, again, thus offered to the commercial world in general are placed peculiarly within the reach of this Society, by the remarkable prosperity which has attended it throughout, and which now puts at its disposal a very considerable yearly income, contributed by a large proportion of the most mfluential mercantile men and bankers in Scotland, and by many of the most respectable and wealthy of the English houses. ' ''' Satisfied, upon these grounds, that the time has come when the benefits derivable from the Societv may be greatly augmented, the present Directors have bestowed upon the matters in question very much anxious thou^rht and mquiry. The labours of their predecessors in office, and the resolutions passed, in consequence of those labours by General Meetmgs of the Society, have definitively settled the general principles upon which this new branch of the operations must be organized. In regard to the details, likewise -although the Societv has been pleasoinion of the Society in general upon matters of so much Importance, have thought it wisest to do nothing which should impose on the Members any positive obligation. Accordingly, the plan which they have arranged contains at present the following particulars only : — I. No part of the Society's funds shall be approj)riated to any ])urposes. Involved in this ])art of the s«.'heme, which affect merely the Interests of Individual Members. The only purposes, connected with this part of the plan, for which any such appropriation shall be made, shall be those public purposes relating to the detection and punish- ment of frauds, whose furtherance has been always a leading design of the Society. II. It has been arranged that the business in this department shall be conducted by a Princii»al Clerk in Edin- burgh, assisted by District-Clerks in those towns of Scotland in which the management of sequestrated estates is chiefly concentrated. The services of these Clerks shall be at the command of any Member of the Society who may choose to require them, either for presenting and prosecuting civil claims in bankruptcy, or for other purposes of a similar nature. Members wishing for such assistance, shall apply for it by forwarding information to the Society's Chambers in Edinburgh. It is for each Member individually to determine whether he shall make such an appli- cation. III. The following are the principal grounds upon which the Directors venture to recommend to the Members the acceptance of the services thus put at their disposal : — 1.
