ADDENDA TO ORIGINAL PROSPECTUS. An agreement for the purchase of twelve acres of freehold land on the Koro Koro Stream, Petone, has been made with the native owners, and registered. The Company obtains} under this agreement valuable waterrights, and the price to be paid may be deemed satisfactory. The principal portion of the above land was subject to a lease to Mr Wolland,and the Directors have purchased all his interest with the right of immediate entry. The waters of the stream have been analysed by Dr Hector, who states that they are peculiarly adapted for the purposes required. The site has been reported upon by experts, and pronounced to be one of the most suitable m the whole colony for a Woollen Factory. The advantages of road, rail, and sea carriage at the factory gates, the close proximity of population, and the impossibility of interfering with or injuring other properties, are certainly of the greatest consequence. From the fact that negotiations are already m course of completion for appointing a thoroughly practical Manager, and that plans and specifications for erection of works will be promptly proceeded with, it will be understood that the Directors intend to proceed vigorously with the undertaking. As more than 10,000 shares hare already been taken up. and 5000 will be reserved, there remain only between four and five thousand shares open for allotment, which are now offered to the public. Applications for shares may bo made to the Secretary, at Wellington, either directly or through the Brokers of the Company or any Agents. Every application must be accompanied by the required deposit, or by a receipt from any Branch of the Colonial Bank for the amount of such deposit. Application Forms may be obtained from the Secretary and Brokers, or at any Branch of the Colonial Bank of New Zealand.
