A Corporation With A Soul |
President R. R. Cuyler, of the
Central Railroad and Banking Company of Georgia, in his last report
states: |
The company subscribed the sum
of $1,000 to the sufferers by the fire in Charleston, and $1,000 in
cash and $100 per month afterwards during the war for the benefit of
the families of soldiers. It also subscribed $5,000 towards the
gunboat, and, recently, has presented 1,000 yards of cloth to the army
in Virginia. Such expenditures being out of the usual course are now
mentioned, in the expectation that they, as well as any further
amounts which the Board may think proper to give during the course of
the war, will meet the approbation of the stockholders. |
