in his place Kr. Alfred Jere, • shareholder and • gentleman
of high repute. Finding that the only way to protect the
shareholders, to give equal justice to the (-rafters, and to
guard the property of the company, would be to stop brain-
' dual activi • petition wee presented to the court, under
the Joint Stork Companies Act, 1866. This petition was
presented on behalf of the architect, a shareholder and con-
tributory of the company. Its operation would have been to
appoint en official liquidator, who, together with another
cbneen by the shareholders, would be put in entire control
of the company, and in place of the director. The directors
did not appear on the hearing of this petition. When brought
on, it wee opposed on various grounds; the directors were
shred, their charier and conduct wailed, and imputa-
tions levelled against them of the 'remorse nature An ad-
journment took place; at the adjourned MOWN( the hearing
of the petition was postponed until the 17th
October, and by the order of the court the pro-
prey of the company is Benue until that day,
Tbe director* without delay intimated to the gentleman who
appeared for certain sharrolders at the meeting their &ware
to concur in any plan that could be reasonably proposed for
the general benefit. On the 6th of September • requisition
wee left at tLo office of the company, and notice of this no
quisition on., en Monday, the 7th, given to the directors.
The directors mused the following reply to be mat to the
requisition and notice
" ' Royal Surrey Gardens, Sept. 10.
" Sir, —I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter
of the 7th inetant, ark/reseed to the directors of the Royal
Surrey Garde= Company (limited), in which you state that
" by order of the committee appointed by the shareholder.
to protect their Intern* you enclose copy of emulsifies
left at the car of the compan), In Penton-p> d
request the early attention of the director of tho
Surrey Gardens Company (limited) thereto," sad I have
further to ackbowledge the receipt of the copy of the no
quiaition referred to, which purports to be a regulate= to
the rid director "to call a meeting of the shareholder
of the rid company, fee the peepers of removing from
the directorship of the company the four gentlemen
therein named, and to appoint four other directors in their
dried and also to elect such other gentlemen se directors as
the mid meeting shall think fit, not exceeding the number
prescribed by the deed of settlement of the said =morn ;"
and you further state in your letter that the said requisition
is signal by 37 shareholder holding 626 shares. The original
requisition, on being referred to, la signed by 37 persons, of
whoa two are not shareholders, reps-renting nominally 60
shares, but not entitled to sign, as requisitions most be mimed
by erreholder under their hands. The directors will
without delay call the meeting requested, and will give every
facility to its being hold ; and If the committee appointed by
the shareholder will recommend five gentlemen, duly
qualified and willing = act, the directors will, if they approve
them, nominate them, and appoint them at once, which they
have power to do, and thus avoid the delay of waiting for the
extreorelinary general meeting. The directors will be happy
surrender their duties to more competent Forties, or to
persons having the confidence of the shareholders. and they
trust that by giving them the names of five qualified share-
holders consenting to act, competent to conduct the affair of
the company, and of whom the directors can approve, yea
will enable the director to retire from further collision with
any portion of their shareholder,. I beg an early reply.—l
sca, sir, your obedient servant,
