GROUP XVIII.

This Committee assembled at the usual hour this morning, Mr.
B. Denison in the chair.

EXETER, YEOVIL AND DORCHESTER
RAiLWAY.

Mr. S. Cocxxuate opened the case on behalf of the promoters of
this railway in a speech of considerable length, in which he dwelt
on the benefits to be derived by the southern and western portions of
the kingdom by the construction of this railway. The line was pro-
posed to commence near the city of Exeter. They then proposed to
construct a branch from the line to connect with the Bristol and
Exeter ; the line then pursued its course to Honiton, thence to
Axminster and Beaminster, and finally ended at Yeovil. The total
length of the line was 60 miles, including the branches, and the es-
timated cost was 1,30001.
Mr. Avery was the first witness called, who gave general evidence
as to the nature of this line, which in his judgment would be of great
benefit to the population of Exeter and its neighbourhood. He con-
sidered the line of much more importance to that part of the county
than the line proposed by the Great Western Company for the ac-
commodation of this district.

Mr. Gard gave evidence of a large meeting held in Exeter in
favour of this line in consequence of a requisition signed by 1,300 of
the merehants and leading gentry of that city. He also considered
that the construction of this line would afford great advantages to
the inhabitants of Exeter.
Mr. Dlvott, M.P. for Exeter, was next examined. He was a na-
tive of Devonshire, and had known Exeter from his infancy. He
was a director of the Bristol and Exeter Railway. He considered
that it would be exceedingly beneficial to the inhabitants of Exeter,
that a mere direct line should be made to London, and it would also
have the advantage of keeping up a wholesome competition with the
existing company. The report of the Guage Commission had in-
creased the general feeling of the inhabitants in favour of this line,
which was a narrow one.

The further examination of Mr. Divett was postponed till to-mor-
row, in conseqence of its having been announced that the Speaker
was at prayers.
The Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock to-morrow.
