KEIGHLEY.

A scheme for a new line to accommodate these
towns is in the course of formation. It is a modi-
fication of one which was promoted last session,
and is well supported in the localities intended to
be accommodated. There is little or no doubt that
it will be brought before Parliament in the ensuing
session. Movements have also been commenced for
forming lines of railway from Halifax to Holywell-
green, near Stainland, and from Luddenden Foot
to Booth-above-Luddenden. The Lancashire and
Yorkshire Railway Company are to contribute one
half the capital required for these branch lines, and
the other half will be contributed chiefly by the
landowners and paillowners of the respective die.
