Under proposed plan for the merger
the consolidated company was TO issue
approxima tely SlO.OOO,O 900 notes or
bonds. proceeds to pay off bank loans
of both companies and provide working
capital. The dissenting bank held out
for higher interest on the new securi.

Of a consolidation with Lafayette. it

ability Of c. W. Nash. who was to
head the company. would be the great
