TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE SHREWS-
BURY, WOLVERHAMPTON, AND SOUTH
STAFFORDSHIRE JUNCTION RAILWAY.
GENTLEMEN,

T BEG to annex you a copy of the Report of the Di-
rectors to the late General Meeting, and of the proceedings
thereat. In explanation, lam directed to inform you that the
Act of Parliament authorizes the construction of a Railway
from Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton, with a Branch to Coal-
brookdale, the Capital being One Million, to be equally divided
between the Shareholders in the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton,
and South Staffordshire Junction Company and the Shrewsbury
and Birmingham Company. As however the original Share-
holders in the latter Company had, previously, to_the amalga-
mation with this Company, agreed to subwitce the sum of
£300,000 (being one-fourth of the Capital cored) towards the
formation of the Birmingham, Wolv ampton, and Stour
Valley Railway, (with which the Sh rsbury, Wolverhampton,
and South Staffordshire Compa ave nothing to do,) it is
provided in the Act, as one of e terms of the amalgamation,
that two Classes of Shares s Ibe created, to be termed re-
spectively Class A shares Class B shares. The latter Class
represents half the abo -mentioned Capital of ..t1,000,000,
£500,000,) requir for constructing the line from Shrews-
bury to Wolverham n; and the Class A shares represent the
other half, of that apital together with the additional sum of
£"300,000 to he subscribed on account of that Class exclusively
towards the Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Stour Valley
Line. The position of the two classes of the Shareholders will
therefore be as follows :—assuming that (as it is presumed will
I be the case) the holders of the Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton,
and South Staffordshire Junction Scrip claim the shares to
which they are entitled, then Class A will have 52,000 shares of
£l5 7s. 9d. each, and Class B the same number of shares of
.#:9 12s. 3d. each, which share will be credited with 125.. as a
deposit. The original number of Shrewsbury, Wolverhamp-
ton, and South Staffordshire shares having been only 26,000,
two of the new shares of £9 12s. 3d., makinglogether .el 9 4s.
6d., will be issued in respect of each one of those original shares

Wolverhampton, November 3d. 1846.

*Since the above circular was published, the Directors have
ascertained fully. the liabilities of the Company, the demands
against them being all ;obtained—and they have great pleasure
in stating that the amount is not so great as they anticipated.
They have also allotted the whole number of Shares remaining
in their hands at ,E'2 10s. deposit, thus dividing those expenses
over a greater number of shares and adding a proportionate
sum to the balance in their Bankers' hands. They have, there-
fore, the satisfaction of informing you that instead of 12s. per
share, they are now in it position to pay over the sum of 14s. as
a deposit—and that from arrangements proposed to the Direc-
tors of the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company, they fully
anticipate the whole amount originally paid, tiz , ss. on the
Class B shares, will be ultimately given credit for in the books
of the amalgamated Company ; in any event, whatever sum the
Shrewsbury and Birmingham Company take for expenses from
their deposits on Class A shares, the like amount will be cre-
dited to holders of Class B shares.
Shares to be sent in for Registration on or before the
10th of December next.
