This Company is formed for the purpose of carrying on, as
a joint-stock enterprise, the well known engineering works of
Mr. Henry Grissell, situate in the Eagle Wharf-road,
Regent's Cana, London.
Mr. Grissell's work+ cover a space of 2i acres of land, and
possess a frontage of 70) feet on the Eagle Wharf-road, with
nearly the same extent of water frontage. Being situated on
the Regent's Canal, they are connected with the Thanes and
with all the r .ilways which run into London, and are other-
wise admirably adapted to the requirements of the business
to be conducted therein. They are nuw in lull operation, and
the Company will thus at once enter upon an existing and
profitable business.
It is intended to work, in conjunction with this business,
some valuable patents which the Company have arranged to
acquire for improvements in an important class at steam
agricultural machinery, for which there is a largely increas-
ing remand at home and abroad, and for the manufacture of
which these premises are well adapted.
The Regent's Canal Iron Works were established by •Mr.
Grissell in the year 1814, and since that time have been most
successfully carried on under his imme 'late supervision. For
heavy and expensive castings, and for iron bridges, and the
like, his works stand unrivalled. He has founded, in connec-
tion with these works, an extensive continental as well as
home connection.

Within the last few years many important engineering
establishments have been transferred from private hands to
form the basis of joint-stock enterprise, and with the most
marked success. Amongst these may be named the works of
Mr. John Ashbury, now The Ashbury Iron and Waggon
Company of Manchester ; the works of Mr. John Barrow, of
Staveley, now The Staveley Iron and Coat Company (limited);
and those of Mr. John Brown, now known as John Brown
and Company, of Sheffield. The shares of all these are at a
very large premium.
The terms upon which the Directors have engaged to pur-
chase Mr. Grissell's works, are founded upon a valuation
made by Messrs. Fuller and Horsey. and are most satisfac-
tory. Mr Grissell has agreed to leave in the business a eon-
derable portion of the purchase money, and for the present
to take upon himself the responsibilities of Managing
Director.
The shareholders will incur no liability beyond the amount
of shares allotted to them. Applications for shares must be
made upon the annexed form. Each applicant will be re-
quired to pay into the bankers of the Company per share
on the number of shares ar plied for, and upon allotment to
make a iurthcr payment of £2 per share on the shares allotted
to him. If no allotment be made the deposit will be returned
In full. Further calls will be made at intervals of not less
than two months, and no call will exceed £2 per share.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be
'
had of the Solicitors, and at the Offices of the Financial Cor-
poration (limited), 14, Leadenhall.street, City, E.C.
