REPORT of the PROCEEDINGS at the SECOND
ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING of Shareholders,
held ac the London Tavern, on THURSDAY, 28th July,
1864 ;
WILLIAM CHARLES BROWN, Esq., in the Chair.
The Secretary read the notice convening the meeting,
and the following report of the Directors and the statement
of accounts:—
The Directors feel much pleasure in being able to present
a statement of accounts showing that the business of the
Company continues to make steady and most satisfactory
progress, and that a safe and profitable business has been
transacted.
The gross prc fits made during the six months ending the
30th ult. have been £72,991 3s 4d. This amount, after de-
ducting £43,741 loe 4d for rebate on bills not due, and the
current expenses. has enabled the Directors to increase the
reserve fund to £25,000, and to declare a dividend at the
rate of eight per cent. per annum (free of income tax), pay-
able on and after Moi:day, the Ist of August next, leaving
a baltuace of £1,411 13s 9d to carry forward to profit and loss
new account-
The Directors desire to call attention to the following
facts. In April, 1863, soon after commencing business,
the amount of loans and deposits entrusted to the Com-
pany was abcut £1,000,000; at the close of the year the
a mount was £2,600,000; on the 30th June last, as the an-
nexed accounts show, it had augmented to nearly three
millions and a half.
As the extent of the Company's operations must in a
great measure be proportionate t, the amount of deposits
and loans placed in its care, the Directors wish to observe
that the more the shareholders and their friends become
depositors the greater will be the profits accruing to the
Coropat
