The Secretary read the notice, convening the meeting.

That it is desirable to reconstruct the Com- pany, and accordingly that the Company. be wound up voluntarily, and that James Berwick Duncan, Esq., be and he is hereby appolated Liquidator for the purposes of such winding up, That the said Liquida'or be and he is hereby
authorized to consent to the registration of a ner
mpany, in he named The Pajom Mining Company, Limited, with a Memorandum and Articles of Association which have already been Trepared with the privity, and approval of the Directors of this Company.

Mr. Hart Buck. I should ilke to ask li any alteration with the valing power of shareholders of preference shares has been made slaco the last meeting,
The Chairman-An alteration has bean made In accordance with the resolutions of the last
· eeling that one oidinary shareholder will have one vote for every ten shaies and prefer. ence stareholders one for every forty, becaTES the preference shares represent fsriy dollars, Fot 11 an ordinary share represents eight dollars an prdinary shareholder obtalum A vote for $80. I think in this case that the ordinary shareholders are put very much in the Fame position as the shareholders who subscribed 10 $30,000,
Mr. Hart Buck-I qulle understand, 'Mr. Chair- man, the position of the shareholders In this matter and as a holder of ordinary shares I have. certain sympathy with the preference share- holders. At the same time the preference share bolders should not have their voting power, cat down. The preference shareholders took their shares on certain conditions and they propose to
keep to their rights, Now yes propose to take away their sights and give them no voice la the matter. In fact, I will more an amendment that the preference sharabolders be given one wale for twenty instead of forly shares.
After a short pattes no one, seconded the amendment.
Mr. Hart Buck-This is a very small meeting and I consider this rather an Important matter. Mr. Lewis-Do you colica the meeting has been convened to confirm the renolallons ?
Mr. Hart Buck-We cannot help tha. Sill I shall protest on account of the prefstence sbareholders.
