A AMALGAMATION WITH THE DIRECT NORTHERN.

In accordance with the Circular already issued to the Shareholders
who have signed the Deeds, the Directors take this means of giving
notice to those parties who have become Shareholders since
the date of the Deeds, that on the transmission of their Scrip to the
offices of the Company, in a letter in the form subjoined, such Scrip
will be endorsed and become negotiable on the basis of the AMAL-
GAMATION with the DIRECT NORTHERN.

With the Direct Northern, without forwarding their Scrip, it is re-

early notice will be given.
FORM OF LETTER TO BE ADDRESSED TO J. R. MOWATT,

I now inclose.
i APPROVE of the AMALGAMATION of the LONDON and
YORK and the DIRECT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANIES,

Board of each Compan, under date of sth of May, instant.
Name and Addyress r
of the Shareholder. t
Nos.-E.—Copies of this form may be bad at the offices, 7, Lothbury.
* Insert the Number.

LONDON AND YORK.
The Committee of Shareholders are of opinion that the
Directors would best consult the interest of the Shareholders, if they
would confine their advertisements to a fair consideration of the re-
lative Talus of the Direct Northern Amalgamation and the Eastern
Counties Company's offer. The amalgamation with the Direct
Northern lessens the calls, but gives no increase to the returns of the
line, takes nothing from the expense of constructing it, and adds
not one shilling to the value of the shares. Every sharebroker
knows, the proposition of the Committee would, if accepted and
carried out, in one week double the value of the shares,
and remove all the heavy responsibility of calls. If the calls up to
23/. ruin the London and York Shareholders, what a meagre comfort
13 afforded by the amalgamation with the Direct Northern, which
only relieves the remaining twenty-five.
The Directors seem to think the whole question between them and
tis
I:,' eP,,roPrietary % ii
whether the exertions of the Committee are stlm-
rby the Eastern Counties Company. The Committee think the
Important point is the object they have sought to attain, viz., to add
to the value a the shares, and relieve the embarrassment of calls.
They feel all the Directors' arguments as to the Committee being
Instruments in the hands of the Eastern Counties Company are de-
molished when they state that they hold thousands of London and
"Pork shares, and that their interest is that of Shareholders, and
Shareholders only ; and they cannot help thinking, if the Directors
had no other bias, and c,oull all view the question through the same
Pecuniary medium, they would arrive at sounder financial conclusions.
The Committee feel they owe it to themselves to state, that neither
as a Committee, nor as individuals, are they party, or privy to, the
anonymous advertisement attacking the Directors.
The Committee direct the attention of the Shareholders to one
simple point—marking the value of their exertions. If the London
and York Bill succeed, the Shareholders who sup port the Com-
mittee are not prejudiced. If the Eastern Counties York Extension
scheme succeed, the Committee havefor those who join
them the Eastern Counties Extension shares, secured
iares, which,, in that event,
will undoubtedly be each worth 101. piuremolutmo.thrhe opsireewehtosocrrpsi.rpe ftTeorhttohh.

who prefer the Eastern Counties offer . will bring their
