Dated the 15th day of May, 1846.
SHEFFIELD, BUXTON, LE-Eg:174)1---7E-
RIBS, AND CRETE RAILWAY.
The Committee of Management, in consequence of the resolution
of the Congleton and Crewe Company, at their meeting held on the 14th
instant, to abandon their line, deem it desirable to apprise their
shareholders, by advertisement, previous to the meeting on Feiner
next, the 22d instant, that in case the scripholders should determine
to carry on their line, the Directors think it advisable and are
hapre-
pared to abandon the projected branch to Congleton, and they have
therefore applied to Mr. Vignoles, their engineer, for a minute and
detailed estimate of the cost of the main line from Buxton to Stoke.
Mr. Vignoles assures the Committee that the line can be made for
something less than 600,0001.; and on that outlay there is satisfactory
reason to believe that a very ample dividend will be realised.
It will not be necessary, in order to comply with the standing
tsneo North difficultys
afforders of the House of Lords, to make a call, as the Accountant-
General already holds a sufficient amount of the shareholders' money
for that purpose. The Bill having been referred to the Committee
on Unopposed Bills,
con-
sidered virtually obtained.
The shareholders of h
Matlock, and
necting Bill'
elm t Ambergate Railways, of which this will be the con-
tthorednsh7rune,t3elr, anacnhdesintear,y Bbeuxton,
aud the , baying unanimously consented to prosecute their Bills,
ost certainty
of their obtaining the sanction of the Legis-
Railway of eonsiderableleld, Buxton, Leek, Potteries, and Crewe
saving of time and dlstaneem,P"tance in
facilitating,
by an immense
dise from the eastern to the the transit of passengers and merchan-
the conveyance of the Irish traftleen; parts of England, as well as for
for exportation to the Continent ot Europerts of Hull and Grimsby
Under these circumstances, the Committee
to reduce the amount or number of the eherees will deem it expedient
and as the funds in
hand on obtaining the Bill would be sufficient tfo
a
for a considerable period, it is not probable the Committee
the works
required to make a call until after a meeting of shareUedewrsoul td be
, o be
held in January next in pursuance of an Act of Parliament.
By order,
Leek, May 18, 1846. R. Y. CLARKS, Secretary.
