It appears that a requisition signed by more than 300 in-
fluential shareholders in this company is to be presented to
the directors, for the purpose of inducing them to hold the
next halt-yearly meeting at Exeter, instead of, as usual, at
Plymouth, and all subsequently half-yearly meetings alter-
nately at Plymonth and Exeter, on the ground that three-
fourths of the shareholders live at Exeter, Bristol, London,
and other plaees cast of Exeter, and only one-fourth of them
in the neighbourhood of Plymouth•
