PROSPECTUS.

This Company is established for the purpose of purchasing
the property and continuing the business of the well known
Oxford and Canterbury Musio Halls, so suzeessfully con-
ducted by the present proprietor, Mr. Charles Morton, for
several years pa t.
The Directors, in bringing the present Company before the
public, are not inviting subscriptions to an unknown or un-
%Med venture, but to an established and highly remunerative
Aindertaking, and one which, with the additional means at
the command of a Joint-stock Company, may be made still
More so.

agreement has been entered into for the purchase of the
Whole of Mr. Morton's interest in these properties, together
With the goodwill of the business and the stock in trade, on
terms highly advantageous to the Company, and in order to
Chow his confidence in its future succe.s, he has subscribed
for one-fourth of the entire capital, and will continue for
'Acme years the manager.
It is the intention of the Company to increase the hotel
'accommodation, which has hitherto been found inadequate,
and thus materially add to the present large returns. There
is also an excellent private wine trade attached to both
establishments, which is capable of considerable extension.
It is impossible to show, with certainty, by any statistics,
the returns which may be expected from the present under-
taking, but the certified accounts for the last three years
show an annual profit of upwards of 20 per cent. upon the
whole amount of capital, wh chit is contemplated eventually
to tall up,
The Present average attendance at the Oxford and Canter-
bury Music Halls is about 60,000 a month, and the proposed
extension of business will doubtless render the profits of the
smdertaking still more remunerative than ever.
One- half of the capita has been already applied for, and
applications for the remainder should be made to the bankers
of the Company. accompanied by a deposit of £1 per share ;
if no allotment be made the deposit will be returned.

Pros; ectuses and forms of -application for shares may be
obtained at the Oxford and the Canterbury, at the Brokers,
and at the Temporary Offic B of the Company.
The Share List will close on Tuesday, 26th July, 1864.
