PROSPECTUS. j This Company is proposed for the purpose of taking over as a " going concern," and continu ing the working upon a very much enlarged scale of the Tanning business, situate adiacent to the City of Wellington, and known as the property o£ Mr. J. Guilford (together with the whole o£ the stock, tools, and machinery now in his possession), which is situated at Beramphore, near Newtown, within three miles of the city, and has been in working order for the past seven years. The present proprietor has during that time been extensively manufacturing shoe makers' and saddlera' leathers, and now finds the demand so great that increased facilities are necessary to meet the demand; and being con vinced, after several yearß of practical opera tions, that a Company with capital introducing the necessary machinery and skilled labour, will be able to command a trade second to none in New Zealand. j The agreement with the vendor is to take the whole of the plant at a valuation, estimated to come to in all about £1,000, £1,000 offwhich amount will be taken by him in paid up shares. The property consists qf one acre of land, a new 10-H.P. engine and rolling gear complete, drying and scouring sheds, and about 30 excellently built pit*l, giving every facility for extensive operations; approached by a good macadamised road, and easy of access. During the last few years an onormous demand has sprung up for all kinds of leather, the supply both for the export and New Zealand trade being altogether inadequate to meet requirements, hence great delay and consequent loss to the consumer is constantly arising. It is therefore intended, as soon as the Company is fairly -floated, to lay down such increased stock and appliances as will meet these requirements, and to adopt such means as will secure for the Company's leather the first reputation through out the whole of New Zealand. The business will be carried on by Mr J. Guil ford until the Company enters into possession, and satisfactory arrangements can- be made with that gentleman tot his valuable services in connection with the active management of the Company. '■ The Provisional Directors have not thought it advisable or necessary to prepare any elaborate statements of figures showing probable profit— the;fact is well known to all, that such a business, even moderately well managed, is bound to pay yery handsomely ; and, when practical experi ence is combined with large capital.as.it will bo in this case, the Company-, should prove an in vestment second to none in the colony. - A large proportion of the capital has already been taken up by those interested in the Leather trade. Early applications are therefore re-, quested. Prospectus and Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from the Bankers, any of the Directors,!at the temporary offices of the Company, Featherston-street,- Wellington, or from . v; : JOHN SOPPETT,■■-•■. •";!:■: ■ -,I:'}' r ',:, { l .'
