( Secretary . ) Notwithstanding the existence of several Cab Companies , it is admitted , on all hands , that there is ample room for another . The Directors on that account have determined upon starting the Six Days Cab Company , to run at reduced fares and to abolish all Sunday traffic . The degree of success that has attended similar Associations proves that there is very little speculation in the objects of this Company . The following are among the advantages which this Company presents : — 1 st . —To have first-rato Horses and Carriages , the latter to be provided with improved Indicators , by which it will be at once seen the distance travelled . 2 nd . —To abolish the Insult and Extortion now too prevalent , by employing men of known respectability of character , who will be provided with Livery Coats and Hats , and paid a regular weekly salary . 3 rd . —To afford their Servants the opportunity of moral and religious instruction , by entirely abolishing all Sunday Work , thereby constituting this , what the Title imports—viz ., a Six-Day Conveyance Company . 4 th . —To bring the luxury of Cabriolet riding within the reach of nil classes b y reducing the Fares to ( one half of the present legal charge ) 4 d . per mile , which , by the calculations subjoined , are clearly shown to be both possible and profitable . The following statement is submitted to the Public for consideration . It is calculated that each £ 1000 will purchase 10 Cabs , 20 Horses , and Harness complete . itlSCKIPTB .
