Steps were taken about three months. past for the formation of this
Company, and applications were received for a large number of
Shares ; but before proceeding to an allotment, the Committee and
the Projector deemed it advisable to have direct information from
Jamaica on subjects connected with the line—the probable cost of the
land through which it would pass—the engineering difficulties, if any
—and other matters connected with the line. They have received
this information and set It forth herewith.
The Provisional Directors have now determined to bring the Com-
pany forward, and to extend the line as far as Annotta Bay: th•
principattowns to be thus connected are
