The agreements are dated the 13th day of April, 1898 and are made with E. R. Smith on behalf of this Company. ; Mr John Bruce agrees to (ell the claim above described for of which he takes £400 in f nUy paid-up shares and £100 in cash. .The Dunstan Dredging Company ngree to sell their stesm dredge afloat opposite the Golden ■Beach claim, with all appurtenances (as per inventory to be seen at the office of the brokers), in good working order, at the price of .£2500. The Bpecial inducements towards investing in tne Company are: ■ The reasonable price of Dredge, which, if required to be built now, Would cost at least £3SOO The Dredge can be put to work within a few days of registration of the Company, so that shareholders may reasonably look for immediate dividends, and will have the full benefit of the low I state'of the river that exists during the winter months. - - ' The Dredgo being in good repair, and working I »t present, Shareholders will save time and interest and avoid all the risks and dangers generally run in building » dredge. The buckets are of 3 cubic feet capacity, and i the ladder will dredge to 33ft below water level. ! | The claim is immediately adjoining the rich IMapnherikia Dredging Company's claim. Six hundred (600) contributing shares have been subscribed for by the v<sndo«. I I Coal can be delivered on the oi&im at a price not ' I exceeding £1 2s per ton. I The claim was tried some years ago by mean* of a pneumatic uylimiov dredge, but the system proved to b* only fit for prospecting and not to work steadily for profit. The prospectus em- : bodies reports by Messrs Thompson and Simon- ' »en, who wore employed on the Pneumatic Dredge; also reports by Messrs Cutten Bros., and the present dredgemaster (Mr P. Brennan). Dr J. G. Hyde is willing to act as Local Director if the shareholders desire him to do so. The Agreements and Memorandum of Agstciation can bo snon at the Offices of the Brokers where copies of the prospectus, with plan, may be obtained. limy
