The affairs of the old Scio milk
cendensory, which went into bank
ruptcy a couple of years sgo, have
been Anally closed up and the general
creditors have been awarded a divi
dend of one per cent on their claims.
There were more than one hundred
of these general creditors living
around Scio and the Lacomh country.
N. M. Newport represented about
40 of these creditors and has received
checks for the one per cent dividend
allowed.
They range in amounts from eleven
