NOTICI4IIS 'HEREI IY GIVEN, That INTEREST WAR=
R I'S for the payment oft he first half-year's interest, due on the
Ist November next, will be I sued in exchange for the first coupon
attached to the shares, at the Company's Oitice, 4, Skinner's-place,
Sise-laue, City, on and after the sth November.
The Directors take this opportunity of expressing to the share-
holders their regret that the. Llue will not be opened at the close of
this month, as had been anticipated. The extreme difficulty of
finding labour during a very u nhealthy season, combined with unex-
pected obstacles In the construction of the tunnel, and a change of
plan and situation of the station at Frascati, have produced this
result. The delay does not, however, affect the interests of the
shareholders, as in virtue of the arrangement made with the con-
tractors their guarantee of 7 per cent. on the capital commences on
the Ist November. The contractors having thus so strong an inte-
rest in the early opening of the line, are making great exertions fit
that purpose, and they report that early in the ensuing year the line
will be open for traffic.
By order of the Board.
