without reserve, on the 17th instant, if she can be obtained at
a price not ex:ceeding £120,000, which sum is about one-
eighth of the original cost of the ship.
A large proportion, in value, of the Bondholders of the
Great Ship Company (Limited), have already intimated their
intention of ex:changing their bonds for shares in the Com-
pany, and it is expected that more than one-half of the pro-
posed capital will be obtained from this source.
In the event of the Ship being purchased at or under the
above price, a meeting of shareholders will be held immedi-
ately afterwards, to determine whether she shall be worked
by the Company, or whether she shall be placed under indi-
vidual management ; to appoint directors, and to make such
rules and regulations for the purposes of the Company as the
meeting shall deem desirable.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be
obtained of the brokers, solicitors, and at the temporary
offices of the Company ; but no application for shares will be
considered (excepting in exchange for bonds of the Great
Ship Company, 'Arai; ed), unless a deposit of £5 per share has
been previously paid to the bankers of the Company.
