the amount due to it from the government, of which due notice shall be
given. |

until the 20th July next, Stockholders who desire it may receive their
dividends in full in Four Per Cent Certificates for Registered Bonds or
Stock, at the rate of seventy-five cents to the dollar, or two thirds in
such Certificates and one-third on Seven thirty certificate, Notes, at
same rate, as far as practicable. There being no Four Per Cent
Certificates under one hundred dollars, and the Certificates held by the
Company being of various, but generally of considerable amounts, which
cannot be split, it will be permitted to two or more Stockholders, who
may please to do so, to unite in taking one Certificate, or the Company
will undertake to transfer on the government Books as speedily as
practicable the amount of registered Bonds or Stock falling to any
Stockholder into his or her own name. |
