of these shares on or before Friday, the 16th of January, will re-
ceive a letter of allotment of Scottish Midland " Extension " shares,
in the proportion of one of such " Extension " shares for every two

fore the above date, will forfeit their right to such shares, which will
be allotted to other parties immediately thereafter.

tered into between the Directors of the Scottish Midland and Scottish
