This Company originated at a Public Meeting of the 07., r‘,7l-4,,
Cornwall, convened by the High Sheriff, in pursualleieie :9114,1,
sitien signed by the Lord Lieutenant and 1,600 a t'oire
Gentry, and Freeholders of the County, held at the
~oOtt
in Bodmin, on Thursday, the 28th August, 1843. A.,,i opr
The Meeting was held in consequence of the succe.!!"-e4 Co, ni./
by the County, and rejection by Parliament, of the "reinyille ,e‘o'oc
Railway Bill, and a Bill for making a railway froln '",.„ 7,)rios

The object of the present undertaking is to Pravid tuiS jje 4 ,
system of railway communication for the whole of 1 10.,,
peninsula ; and as the waste of capital and time involve"3„g oi
cuitous route by Bristol is greatly complained of, the lea roost ir
dispensable feature of the project will be to obtain thLoatli,, 'lO
punctual, and economical line, between London, Fa Con'
Penzance. It was this central line, westward, which the
of the House of Lords, on the Wilts and Somerset Ran,-.0010 44,
the present session, obliged the Great Western RailwaY,'-'d , 014
pledge themselves not to oppose ; and which they SPeanl'trY re""
report "as the line which the best interests of the con 0, pi)
and which must eventually be carried direct to Falai° ,el

With this strong expression from the Legislature, anua tD-0,
auspices, it may be considered that a continuous line no ieso
front London, through Salisbury, to Yeovil and Exetel',_...a, ftlo
thirty miles shorter than the devious course orthe
Railway, is already morally secured. In order, theregeretfl.o.llo;o°
plete the great national project thus suggested by Line, ,
,
Lords, it remains only to extend this direct Exeter

The saving in actual distance thus effected betivecqs ofe:;ect
