"London, June 20, 1845. _
~ My dear Sir—lt was never contemplated by me that
name would be advertised in connexion with any partioul_f
scheme for a railway between London and Manchester ;T:
signature was given merely to express my opinion that_o
more direct line than now exists was wanted, and I had ti
idea that the list of signatures would have been published bl
Mr. Ashurst in connexion with any particular project.

One word more. When the advertisement of the Lool
and Manchester Direct Rairway appeared, Messrs. Livius
Rogers, of Bedford, called at the office of Messrs. Sudlow 10,!:
Co , in Chancery. lane, and inquired of some person
office why Mr. Remington's line was to be opposed•
to the
answer was, that Mr. Remington's line had been sold
London and Birmingham Railway. As some of the parties cow
netted with the London and Manchester Direct Railway
connected with Mr. Remington's line last year for sevearn-d
months, and in spite of all remonstrance, all entreaties,_ent
every appeal, refused to bring it out in time for the Prech"
session of Varliament, so that it was delayed then, su dote
answer from such a quarter may be significant of what waswhat
then, and of the course to be followed now. Be the rest," lb.
it may, Mr. Remington's line shall be brought before it
public honestly, and with all the power we can give it, rt.
is for them to judge whether or not it be worthy of oppo.
We are, Sir, your obedient servants,
