" the undersigned, being interested in the trade of Manehestzr.
and in the shortest and quickest intercourse between Louden and
Manchester, hereby express our conviction that a direct line of rail-
way between those places will give the public thegreatest cheapness.
convenience, and speed.
"That it is of paramount importance to the trade, and to the
public, that they should not continue dependent for cointuanicatioa
with Lancashire upon one, and that a circuitous line of raiiway.
" That the immediate formation of a direct line is essential,
because, if delayed, it will become more and more ditticult, in con-
sequence of the branch railways which local necessity will <Alginate.
" That an independent trunk line is necessary, to guard the try
and commerce of the metropolis and Lancashire against exonealve
charges. and the many evils of a rapidly-extending monopoly.
" We therefore authorise and request Messrs. isburst and SQL
Solicitors, and Messrs. Sudlow, Sons, and Torr, Solicitors, to take
the necessary steps tbr the formation of a Committee, witli a 'dew
to the adoption of such a line.
