CREDITORS OWED money by the bankrupt company that owns the Terrace Inn might have to wait until next year to find out how much they'll receive, -

And chances are creditors, par-

ticularly those with ‘unsecured debis, won't receive full amounts, a trustee handling ihe affairs of bankrupt 476740 British Colum- bia Ltd. said last week,

Ron ‘McMahon of Smythe McMahon Inc. made the. com- ments at a_ first meeting of

creditors here Sept. 6,

Inn creditors won’t get much

The numbered company, which

bought the Terrace Inn nearly a : Year. ago, was declared bankrupt last month, paving the way for a sale of the hotel and a division of ‘assets between creditors.

It owes neatly $2.3 million, of which $419,000 is claimed by un- secured creditors. "Don't expect to get 100 cents on the dollar, certainly,’ McMahon warmed the sparsely af- tended session of creditors.

The only asset is the land'and hotel building, bought by the

numbered company for $1.9 mil- lion a year ago. Only $100,000 of that was ever paid to the hotel’s seller, Georgilas Investments,

‘McMahon said an appraisal of the property has been requested and that there have been purchase inquiries made,

He noted that an estimated $50,000 will have to be spent to bring the hotel up to fire code.

Also on the list of creditors aré hotel employecs who went unpaid in the weeks leading up to receivers taking over this spring.
