| Stockholders' Meeting |
| Pursuant to adjournment, the
stockholders in the Wilmington & Weldon Rail Road Company met this
forenoon in the Court House in this place. |
| The convention was organized
by calling O. G. Parsley, Esq., to the Chair. L. H. DeRosset, Esq.,
Secretary of the company, was requested to act as Secretary of the
meeting, and, with P. Murphy, Esq., of Sampson, constituted a
committee to verify proxies and ascertain the amount of stock
represented. There being a clear majority present, the meeting
proceeded to business. The report of the President and Directors was
submitted by S. D. Wallace, Esq., Pres't pro tem. |
| The attendance of Stockholders
is large, and there is evidently a disposition to dispatch business
promptly on account of the scarcity of accommodations. |
