The last share number issued to Midsum-
mer, 1869, was No. 32,596.
As the annual meeting will take place early in December,
the period has arrived for the members to elect two share-
holders, who, with two nominated by the Executive Com-
mittee, will have to audit the accounts of the Conservative
Land Society. The candidates who have sent in their names
for the office of auditors are Mr. W. H. Clemow, manager
of the Dudley and West Bromwich Bank, and Mr. James
Goad, estate agent, of 287, Essex-road, Islington, whose
names have been duly advertised under Rule 30 in the
notices for this quarterly meeting. The Executive Com-
mittee have appointed Mr. Thomas Russel, public ac-
countant, and Mr. Newnham Winstanley to act as the two
auditors on the part of the Board. After this day's elec-
tion the four auditors will meet in due course to examine,
audit, and report as to the accounts and balance-sheet for
the financial year ending the 30th of September last, to be
presented at the annual meeting early in December next, to-
gether with the report of the Board as to the year's business.
The directors of the United Land Company (Limited),
having announced that they will submit four estates for
sale, under the allotment system, in the course of this
month (October), the Executive Committee beg to remind
the members who hold the rights of choice on the register
of the Conservative Land Society that, by mutual arrange-
ment, they will have priority of selection on the days of
allotment, viz., the 20th (Portsmouth, No. 2), the 22d
(West Hill, Putney Heath), and the 27th inst. (Sheerness,
No. 2, and llammersmith). As regards two of the above-
mentioned properties, it may be stated that the whole of
the first Portsmouth estate has been sold by the company,
and that the second estate to be offered adjoins the first
one, and is equally eligible. Tho second Sheerness estate
is also an addtion to the first purchase, the sale of which
has been remarkably rapid. The two suburban estates
aro close to railway stations in popular localities, which,
from their vicinity to town, will be adapted for villas and
houses to meet the demand of all classes of the community.
The Executive Committee have much pleasure in draw-
ing the attention of the shareholders to these four
estates for allotment, as their sale by the United
Land Company will tend to add to the building ad-
vance business of the Conservative Land Society.
The Executive Committee have much gratification in an-
nouncing that the co-operatisn with the United Land
Company, Limited, is progressing actively and profitably
for the mutual benefit of the two associations, the society
transacting investment and building advance business
under its certified rules, and the company purchasing land
wholesale and selling it retail under the provisions of the
Companies Acts. The directors, therefore, in entering on
the eighteenth year of the Conservative Land Society,
can congratulate the shareholders on its present position
and its future prospects with the two undertakings.
The meeting had Lot ended when we went to press.
