ea of tea in India, being desirous of concentrating and
iF,4fiaing their operations to the Southern Division of
thvePer Assa and thus centralising the management of
%ell. extensive properties, have determined on selling it to
Northern Assam Tea Company (Limited), whose
farates are contiguous, the whole of the northern and eas-

lag alternative of promoting a new company to carry
them on, or placing them under separate management.
