DEPOSIT £1 PER SHAk .
rilHls Company has been formed rder to obviate the
great difficulties the Consumers Gas in the Eastern
Division of London have had to cont d with: the Directors.
purpose supplying a pure Gas at 30 per cent. under 'he rates as
at present paid, securing an ample supply not only to the con-
sumers by burner, but also to those that burn by meter, for whom
a separate main will be laid down.
This Company does not come forward as others have done,
"upon the ground of public good," for while they afford :he
public the great advantage they proinike, yet in so doing they
secure to themselves and to the sharablders a dividend of 15
per cent. for their capital embarked.
The immense and continued increase in the consumption of
Gas, both for public and private use, renders a Company of this
.description beyond doubt a sure and certain investment, as
many years will not elapse before it supercedes the use of fuel
altogether, as its utility in heating and culinary purposes are
now fully established; its economy and cleanliness will make it
the more desirable for such purposes.
From the many and recent improvements, both in the manu-
facture of Gas and in the construction of Works and Machinery,
this Company dues possess great advantages over any at present
established, having the benefit of all without the original expense.
The Directors are determined to adhere to the strictest eco-
nomy, both in the construction of works and in every other
branch of the establishment, and by so doing they can pledge
themselves to supply Gas at the reduction as stated, a'id at the
same time ensure to the shareholders a larger Dividend than
any other similar Company ever did pay.
