a dividend of £ 4 per cent , per annum , free of income tax , leaving a balance to be carried forward of £ 33 14 s 9 d . The directors retiring by rotation were Bros . Hickman , Robertson , Waters , Coles , and Dusautoy , who were eligible for re-election . The Chairman , moving the adoption of this report said , the accounts also showed a balance of £ 24 18 s on capital account . Tho hall , no doubt , required
some amount of finishing and decoration , and he hoped the meeting would be so far satisfied with the judgment of the Directors as to leave the matter with them , to pay the cost either from income or capital as they might think proper , thongh he was not prepared to say what the amount would be . The walls were now completely dry , and he was sure the Directors would
do what was required in a spirit of taste , and , at the same time , of economy . Whether the cost should bernet from income to fche prejudice of the dividend next year , or by the issue of a few more shares , might be very well left to the Directors . Bro . J . C .
