consult the wishes of the Shareholders, it is desirable to ascertain, as
soon as possible, their sentiments thereon."

In pursuance of the above resolution, the opinion of all holders of
scrip certificates in the line is desired ; and they are requested to
apply, immediately, to the Secretary to the Company, at Leek, for a
