chase from Messrs. Overend, Gurney, and Company of
their long-established business as Bill Brokers and Money.
Dealers, and of the premises in which the.business is con-
ducted ; the consideration for the goothrill being £500,000,
one-half being Paid in caskand the remaiiideaia shares of
the. Company, with £l5 per share credited thereon—terms
which, in the opinion of the Direct Ors, cannot fail to in-
sure a highly remunerative return to the Shareholders.
The business will be handed over to the new. Company
on the Ist August next, the vendors guaranteeing the
Company against any loss on the assets and liabilities
transferred.

Three of the members of the present firm have con-
sented to join the Board of the new Company, in which
they will also retain a large pecuniary interest. Two of
them (Mr. Henry Edmund Gurney and Mr. Robert Birk-.
beck) will also occupy the position of Managing
Directors, and undertake the general conduct of the
business.

The ordinary business of the Company will, under this
arrangement, be 'carried on as heretofore, with the advan-
tage of the co-operation of the Board of Directors, who also
propose to retain the valuable services of the existing staff
of the present establishment_ . .

The... Directors will give their zealous attention to the
cultivation 'of business of a first-class 'character only, it
being theit conviction that they will thus most effectually
promote the of the Company arid the permanent
interests of the shareholders. • ' '

Association; as well as of the Deed of Covenant hi relation
to the transfer of the business, can be inspected at the
Offices of the Solicitors of the Company. .
