    3. HBH 1892 Sept 1 4 Redfern, Alexander and Co REDFERN, ALEXANDER and Co's Suspension The person, whose death and withdrawal of capital is alleged to have caused the suspension of the well known London firm of REDFERN, ALEXANDER and C o, was Mr Philip VANDERBYL. He was the principal partner in the firm, and was also concerned in several colonial institutions which are also connected commercially with the firm in question. The late Mr VANDERBYL was formerly a London physician of great eminence, and the author of several medical books which are regarded as standard works on the subjects treated. He relinquished his profession to become a London merchant. He was very wealthy, and a very able man of business, and sat in Parliament for some years for a Somersetshire constituency. Messrs REDFERN, ALEXANDER and Co were the LONDON house of some important NEW ZEALAND firms, as well as agents for individuals, and a good deal of anxiety is felt here until a further information is received.
