PREFACE. 
 
 rpiIE necessity for the compilation oftiie present volume 
 1ms been su-rgested to the writer by the fact that, 
 in examining' applications for Letters Patent and Supple- 
 mentary Letters Patent, in connection with his duties in 
 the 1 )epartment of Justice, he has observed that such appli- 
 cations are fretiuently defective in point of form, and that 
 many provisions of the Act respecting the Incorporation 
 of Joint Stock Companies, as well as the rerpiirements as 
 to evidence, etc., which depend mainly upon the practice 
 of the J\'partment in such cases, are apt to bo overlooked, 
 or are not known to the applicants, and are therefore not 
 complied with, or but imperfectly observed. 
 
 To remedy these defects, and with a desire to aid those 
 who, in the discharge of professional or official duties, may 
 be called upon to take the necessary steps to obtain incor- 
 poration for a Joint Stock Company, or the granting of 
 Supplem< ntary Letters Patent to a Company already 
 formed, this little volume has been compiled. 
 
 No pains have been spared to make the contents as full 
 and complete as possible. A synopsis of those sections of 
 " The Companies Act," which relate to the granting of 
 Letters Patent and Supplementary Letters Patent, together 
 with the necessary forms, have been i)reparod. To these

 nliitiiij,' to thf iucorpoi-iition mul inuiiiif^fuiont ..f J„ii,t 
 Stock Companies, us wdl us n synopsis of tlu' powers 
 f,'ninted t(. those already incorporated. A chapter upon 
 the In •ori)oration of Jioards of Trade, with forms, has also 
 l)ccn prepared. Nothiiifr has heen omitted which it was 
 considered would he useful in .-i work of this kind, and the 
 volume is otrered to the profession, and to those who 
 are connected with, or interested in. Joint Stock Com- 
 panies, in the hope that, tluni^'h it contains hut little 
 ori-inal matter, it may he found to supply an existing 
 want. 
 
 The compiler feels himself uuKdi indehted to the Hon. 
 •1. A. Chapleau, Secretary of Slate, IV<r permission to rei)rint 
 the synopsis of powers granted to Incorporated Companies ;

 In case it should be nuido to appear to the satisfaction of

 porated company, (whether given by the original or sni- 
 plementary letters patent, or on amalgamation) is the same 
 as that of an existing incorporated or unincorporated com- 
 pany, or so similar thereto, as to be liable to be confounded 
 therewith, the Governor in Council may direct the issue of 
 supplementary letters patent, reciting the former letters 
 and changing the name of the company to some other 
 name to be set forth in the supplementary letters pf.tent. 
 
 When any incorporated company is desirous of adopt- 
 ing another name, the Governor in Council, upon being 
 satisfied 'hat the change desired is not for any improper 
 purpose, may direct the issue of supplementary letters 
 patent', reciting the former letters and changing the name 
 to some other name, which shall be set forth in the supi)le- 
 mentary letters patent. 
 
 The company desiring to obtain a change of their cor- 
 porate name, should petition therefor in the name of tho 
 company. Tho petition,- after setting out the material facts 
 relative to such change and the reasons therefor, should 
 state : 
 
 {(i) That tho company was incorporated by letters patent, 
 giving the date of the letters patent, also the Act under 
 which, and the name by which, the company was so incor-
