form a committee to confer with the landowners with a
view to settle the terms to their satisfaction.
After a short eonsultetion with. the other directors,
Mr. Chaplin repeated this suggestion,ndding that half-
a-dezen shareholders
.might be appointed to assist the
board in conferring
with the landowners.
Mr. LIERAPATH objected to anything that might com-
mit the company to the plan at all.
Mr. Sergeant GASELEE said that he held a great
many proxies from Manchester, and the gentlemen
whom he regasontnd.were not unfavourable to the pro-
ject itsel9; t r principal objection being to the terms.
captain MOOESOM proposed that there be added to the
proposition, that the committee should consider the pro-
priety of obtaining a line between Dorchester and Ax-
minster.
The CHAIRMAN—You have no scheme that will hold
wat*r., and if you had, you have no money to carry it
our.—(Laughter.) I wish to speak in the kindest way;
but this meeting was perfectly humbugged last year.—
(Great laughter.) A committee was obtained, but it
only led to delay.
Captain Mammas protested against his scheme being
called a humbug. He was glad, however, that the chair-
man had at last spoken out. Had he done so a long time
ago, instead of appearing personally to favour it, a vast
de4 of trouble might have been saved.
The CHAIRMAN—YOU certainly came to me, but you
minted 3,0001. before you could even serve the notices.
Mr. LocKE said the landowners had no particular de-
sire to raise any part of the money. If the company
wished it, they might raise the whole sum.
After some further discussion a resolution was moved
and carried almost unanimously to the following effect:
—" That this meeting is of opinion that it isvery irn-
patent to the security of the interests and propnrty of
this railway that the originally designed extension of
the line from Salisbury to Exeter should be carried out
without delay, provided that reasonable terms can be
arrived at wit" the landowners who have offered
i to co-
operate with this company for the purpose n question;
and that it is accordingly resolved that it go back to a
committee consisting of the board and the following
gentlemen. to ieport in the month of September,—
namely, Mr. Craigie, Mr. Beaven, Mr. Simpson, Mr.
Helps, Mr. Matins, Mr. Ashmore, and Mr. Tite."
Before this motion was put Captain Moonsoar made
another effort to get his clause added to it, and Mr.
Locke said he should not object to the addition if the
work " Bridport" were substituted for that of " Dor-
chester." Toe gallant captain's motion only found two
supporters, and was of course lost.
A vote of thanks was then given to the chairman, and
the meeting, which had lasted upwards of six hours,
broke up.
A meeting of the proprietors of the Ne
held, but
Western Steam Navigation Company was then
only for a
the business was merely formal, and lasted w South-
few minutes.
