(FTOW tNe D6mef0FU ATgOSy.)
The member of the British Guiana
Land Cultivation Company, Limited, at a
meeting held this week, decided to wind
up their affairs. The company was start
ed about 3 years ago with a nominal
capital of $4,000, which was divided into
600 shares of S25 each. Only 2l5 of the
shares were taken up, and of this number
some have not been paid up in full. The
215 shares should have produced a capt.
tai OF $3.50, but the amount really receiv-
ed was only s4,041, leaving 1884 still
unpaid. Mr.. Cameron and Mr.. FOrshaw
laid the facts clearly before the meeting
and showed that to carry On the cultiva-
ton of their land, which is IN Pomeroon,
successfully, a considerable sum of money
would nave to be spent upon it. Mr.
Forsbaw then moved ''That it has been
proved to the satisfaction of this meeting
that the British Guiana Land Cultivation
Co., Limited, cannot by reason of its la-
bilities continue its business, and that it
is advisable to wind up its affairs" Mr..
