| In view of the impossibility
of procuring Engines, Cars, Iron and other Railroad supplies to
replace such as have been worn out and destroyed in the use of the
Government, the Directors have determined to distribute among the
Stockholders the fund usually reserved for the above purpose, and
which has been accumulating since the commencement of the war, and
have ordered that Thirty Dollars on each share of stock be paid to the
Stockholders in the eight per cent. Bonds of the Confederate States.,
or in the Treasury Notes of the Confederate States, at the option of
the President of the Company. Said payment to be made on and after the
first day of March. Notice is hereby given that in accordance with the
above order, payment will be made at this office, and at the City Bank
of Augusta, Ga. |
