The Life and Times of Don Roulston Buzzardby Philip John Buzzard
3.1John Roulston in Business in England
By 1881, John Roulston had become a commercial traveler, and an agent selling corn, seed, manure, and implements. However, the Coventry Court ordered him to appear (under the Bankruptcy Act of 1883) on 21st August 1885 at 3pm, at a meeting of his creditors in the offices of H. J. Bland of Nuneaton. His agency was obviously in trouble.

This was followed up on 14th September 1885, with a petition to the court to declare him bankrupt.
