NOTICE iii hereby given, that the Books

unsubscribed in the [•'ariners

on to be taken at the Bank, between the
hours or' ten aiid five, ea'ch day ,- the subscrib-
ers to pay ten dollars en each share at the
time of subscribing, and residue as follows,
to wit : Ten dollars on the thirteenth day of
June j ten dollars on the 13th day of August;
ten dollars on the thirteenth day of October ; &
ten dollars on the twelfth day of December
next, but reserving to any subscriber the li-
berty of paying at any one of those days, the
whole of his subscription then due. The
shares which may be subscribed above the
numher limited, to be reduced by a proportional
deduction throughout the several counties, on
the Western Shore, or by lot, if necessary,
and the monies that may be paid thereon, to
be immediately repaid at the Bank.
If any stockholder shall fa* to make regu-
lar payment of any instalment (after the first
payment) such stockholder's money in Bank,
shall remain free from interest and not entitled
to dividend, until such instalment, or call
shall be made good, and the dividend there-
after to be paid to such stockholder (as well
Upon tile money l^y him regularly paid as up-
on the money paid after default) shall be cai
dilated only Irom the time when said last in-
stalment was made good.
The subscribed shares of the Farmer's
Bank having already risen above par, and be-
ing in great demand, the directors deemed it
to be their duty to give every facility in their
power to the citiztna of every part of the
Western Shore, to become proprietors of a
Stock, to which experience has already at-
tached an hi.gch degree of confidence and an
enhanced value, and which from «very ap-
pearance, would rapidh appreciate whenever
the subscription of the surplus shares should
remove the-possibility of procuring the stock
at a lower value, than the successfull man-
agement of the institution and the public opi-
nion should have conferred on it, notwithstand.
ing, therefore, that the charter directed (hat
the subscription Books for this stock shaii be
opened at Annapolis, yet the directors hold
themselves at liberty and have determined it
to be their duty, to devise means to accommo-
date the citizens of the several counties, who
might Mvish to subscribe, but who cannot at-
tend at Annapolis ; in conformity therefore,
toa determination that had already obtained,
at a joint meeting of the directors of the
Bank and Branch Bank, on a similar occasi-
on, the board have adopted the following re-
solution :
That the directors for the several counties
on the Western Shore, be authorised and di-
rected to receive in their respective countless
from ait persons who may offer to subscribe
for Stock in the Farmer's Bank, on the day,
or days appointed for subscribing, powers of
attorney, enabling- some person to subscribe
for them at Annapolis, and also to receive
from persons so disposed to subscribe, the
sums which are made payable, on subscrip-
tions personally made, and all subscriptions
made under powers as aforesaid, shall be
held and deemed as valid, as if made by
the individuals themselves at Annapolis.
