AT a MEETING of the PROVISIONAL COM-
MITTEE of EDINBURGH for AIDING in the
FORMATION of BRANCH LINES of RAILWAY
to LEITH and GRANTON, held on the 20th day of
October, 1843,
JOHN RICHARDSON, ESQ., Sen., Magistrate of
Edinburgh, in the Chair,

The following Resolution was passed :
" Having conferred with and received the explanations
of the Directors of the Edinburgh and Newhaven Rail-
way, it appears to this Meeting that the formation of the
Branch Lines in question are of the last importance to the
prosperity of Edinburgh, because without a connection
with the Sea, the full advantage to be derived by this city
from the Line with Glasgow, and the projected Line with
Newcastle, can never be attained, and therefore they ear-
nestly recommend this important undertaking to the pa-
tronage and encouragement of the Public."
