23.9.1861 : Mr. Batchelor having reported on the matters referred to him by the last meeting in connection with the settlement with Mr. Rennie, and submitting a basis of settlement which seems to him proper under the circumstances, his views were agreed to, and the negotiation was left in his hands.

On Mr. Rennie accepting this principle of settlements, the matter would be closed at the next meeting.

Payment : Dock Wages : £2,000.

7.10.1861 :  Read a letter from Mr Rennie, dated October 2nd stating his acquiescence with the statement of account sent him on the 28th Ult., except that he claimed interest on £200, the amount of the Low Level Certificate, from the date thereof on the 28th July 1860, and requesting that the calls and interest due to him on Mr. T. B. Batchelor's shares should be deducted from the gross sum due to him, and the balance divided into Debentures and Cash.
