LYNN AND DEREHAM RAILWAY.
(THIS DAY.)
The first half-yearly meeting of this Company was
held this day at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street.
Henry Charles Lacy, Esq., in the chair.
The SECRETARY having read the advertisement con-
vening the meeting, proceeded to lay before the 'Pro-
prietors the report, which was merely a recapitulation of
the progress of their Bill through Parliament, and men-
tioning the necessity of electing auditors and directors.
Tile CHAIRMAN then moved that the report be re-
ceived, entered on the minutes, and a copy seat to each
shareholder. i.
Mr. W. EVERATD seconded the resolution, which was
carried unanimously.
The CHAIRMAN moved that the seal of the Company
be affixed to the register of Shareholders.
Mr. H. C. PARTRIDGE seconded the resolution, which
was carried without dissent.
The CHAIRMAN said that the next form to be dis-
charged was the election of two auditors, an appointment
which, under the Railway Clauses Consolidation Act,
was rendered imperative.
A SHAREHOLDER suggested that, as the Proprietors
were comparatively ignorant of each other, it would be
better that the Directors should name the gentlemen
they considered most suitable fur the office.
The CHAIRMAN said that the Board could not nominate,
but only sumst, gewletnen to discharge the duties of
auditors. However, anticipating some difficulty might
arise is the selection, he had drawn up a list of those
who held the largest amount of shares in the Company.
Mr. Tinker was, next to himself (the Chairman), the
largest holler, having 525 shares ; but as he was the
auditor of the Ely and Huntingdon Company, his elec-
tion would scarcely be advisable. Mr. Lloyd held 400
shares, but he was abroad. Mr. Dawson held 350, but
.being a sharebroker at Liverpool, it was possible that at
any period his interest in the Company might cease ;
his election, therefore, would be inexpedient. Mr.
Bruce, who held 310, was in the same category as Mr.
Tinker, being connected with the Lynn and Ely Company.
Mr. R. C. Dawson held 230 shares, but being Secretary
of the Mil'aok Penitentiary, his time would be too
much occupied to give his undivided attention to their
interests. Mr. Leclimere, a solicitor, was the next
largest holder, having 225 shares, to whom no objection
exist-A. Ile therefore suggested that either that gen-
tlem in and Mr. Teether or Mr. G. Whitley, each holders
of 200 shares, should be elected.
Mr. BUNTING then moved, and Mr. SMITH seconded,
the nomination of Mescrs. Lechmere and Whitley, who
were unanimously elected auditors.
Mr. LECHMERE returned thanks, and assured the
meeting he would do his duty conscientiously by the
Company, which he considered would, when in con-
nexion with the two collateral lines near them (the Lynn
and E'y and the Nottingham and Grantham) become
the bsst among the railway projects of the country.
Mr. TABERNER moved that their late Board of Direc-
tors, consisting of Henry Charles Lacy (Chairman), Sir
Henry R. Calder, Thomas Neville Abdy, William Eve-
rard, Henry O. Partridge, and J. B. Whiting, should be
re-elected.
Mr. SMITH seconded the resolution, which was car-
ried unanimously.
Thanks were then passed to the Chairman and Direc-
tors, and the meeting separated.
