PROSPEC
This Company is formed for the TUS •.purpose of purchasing
and workkg the valuable freehold estate and mineral pro-
perty, known as the Whitti gten Collieries, belonging to the
Rev. W. M. Pierce, . f West Ashlay, tear Horncastle, Lin-
colnshire, who desires to dispose of it on accounr of the de-
cease of his only a n, by whom it was profitably works c.
The Rev. Mr. Pierce has agreed to sell and transfer this pro-
perty to the Company (subject to a mortgage of £20,000, which
if is intended to carry over) free from all rent charges,
royalties, , r liabilities. for the sum of £65,000, and he has
such c,mfid, nee in its value, and in the prospective profits
to be derived from its working, that he has consented to
acc-pt the following terms of payment, namely, .£35,000 in
fully paid-up shares, receiving n , dividend until a dividend
at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum is paid on the other
shares as above, and £30,000 in cash, payable by instalments.
This property, which is situated abo t two miles north of
Chesterfield and nine miles south of Sheffield, is intersected
by the main line of the Midlind Railway, with which the pits
and workin; are connected by a branch line and extensive
sidings, and it is expected the intended new main line of the
Midland Railway, via Sheffield, will pass through the centre
of the estate, with which the Chesterfield Can ,1 also commu-
nicates.
The Freehold Estate comprises 170 acres of arable and
, pasture land of sunerior quality, upon which are ere ted two
excellent residences, with suitable domestic offices and farm-
buildings, a corn mill, three good dwelling-houses. and 24
cottages, the whole producing a rental of Z7OO a year.
The Mineral Estate, containing 350 acres, Is alsa freehold
(except 25 acr s, which are held for a term of which 20 years
are unexpired, free of rent or royaltr, and contains s x
several seams of coal, and three beds of Iron,t, ne, estimated
to produce upwards of 8,000,00 tons of good workable Coal,
suitable for house or manufacturing purposes, coke, or gas ;
and also 2,500,000 tons of Ironstone.
All the seams of Coal and Ironstone have been fully proved,
including the celebrated Silkatone Coal, to which two pits or
shafts are sunk and ul work.
The plant and machinery are of the most substantial a• d
efficient character, capable of delivering 500 tons of coal per
day, and are in in the purchase --
The Collieries are now proaucing upwards of 1,000 tons per
week.
The Ironstone contained in the estate is proved to be of
the first quality, which produces the same class of iron as
that made by the Dunstan and Barlow Company, which
enjois so high a reputa ion in her Majesty's Dockyards for
armour plates, &c. The working has recently been com-
Meneed with the most successful results, the present de-
livery being 300 tons per week, for which there is a ready
sale.
The plant includes 47 coke ovens, capable of producing 200
tons per week, and for which there is a large demand.
Careful valuations of the freehold estate and minerals, and
of the colliercoal ies, ironstone, mines, plant, m chinery, railway,
railway truck ~ coal washng machine coke ovensck
kiln, ciay mill, and all the stock stores, and materials ot
every description upon the collieries with the pit and other
horses working thereon, have been made by the late Mr. T.

Sheffield ; also by the late Mr. George Hastlehurst. of Ches-
terfield, and recently by Mr. Edward Reacher, of the Thorn-
