THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-RECORDER: FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1891. II. C. OIIOM FAILS. If thei A mericu Leesburg II. C. od-.uu. a promine merchant, has failed. Tins was found out hv some few i» Americus Thursday night, and iej»re sentatives of creditors here were at mice sent to that place. From these it was ascertained that the liahilitier amount to $30JMio, while Mr. Odom claims $K»,1V00 assets. There are two mortgages on the stock. The first in the name of Hobbs & Tucker, bankers of Albany, to the amount of $11,000. $4,000 of this amount goes to Hammond. IIill A Co., of Savannah. The second mortgage amounts in all to about $'.1,000. and is to s. H. Weston, Albany, Rank of S.uithwesteiu Georgia. of this place, and others. Hobbs A Tucker also hold a bill of sale to the still and othei property. All the other creditors are unsecured. Among them the heaviest losers an* Moore, Marsh A Co., of Atlanta. >. Waxelbanm, of Macon, $l.*-*00. Ainericus gets oil light. The heaviest creditor here is the Rank of South western Georgia, secured as above mentioned. The largest of the unsecured is the Americas Groce iy Company, the amount being $.'50o. The mhers are small, Bo- rum, Davenport A Co. losing only $00, and H. D. Watts about the same amount. A few other still smaller debts are owed by Odom to parties lu re. In Americas, Macon and Atlanta there arc about $4,000 unsecured. Thus, while Americas does a big busi ness there, the merchants get off light. There is some talk of the creditors ef fecting a compromise, and letting Mr. Odom continue his business. The failure is attributed to too many outstanding accounts and the crowding of some of the creditors, together with the inability of Mr. Odom to borrow more money. He states that with a thousand or two more dollars to earvy ' him through the summer, he could have gone on and made money.
