H. Haupt & Co. was recognized as the firm name under which the parties of the first part were associated, and then to be conducted. Copies of this and the preceding contract will be found printed verbatim in a report of a committee of the House of Representatives in 1860, of which Mr. Kimball, of Boston, was chairman. It was reprinted in 1861, and is House document No. 406, of last year; and it may be profitably consulted for other valuable information touching the doings of the Troy and Greenfield Corporation and the contractors therewith. 1858, May 25, the directors assented that the iron delivered by the Rensselaer Iron Company for the road should remain the property of the iron company until the same was paid for, in accordance with an agreement of H. Haupt & Co. with the iron company. From a report of a committee of the directors made to the board July 23, 1858, it appears that at the date of the report, seven thousand four hundred and fifteen, shares were subscribed for unconditionally by parties who appeared to have been solvent at the time of subscribing. That three thousand four hundred and fifty shares had been subscribed for conditionally, or, by parties who were not solvent, or whose subscriptions could not be collected. That of the conditional subscriptions, the greater part had been or would be complied with; of these nine hundred and thirty-nine were subscribed by the towns not included in the published lists. Upon two thousand four hundred and thirty shares of the unconditional subscriptions, including those of Gilmore and Carpenter, twenty per cent. only had been paid. That upon six thousand five hundred and nine shares, subscribed for unconditionally, twenty per cent. or more had been paid in cash. At this date it appears that the whole number of shares subscribed for conditionally and unconditionally, was ten thousand eight hundred and sixty-five. At this meeting of the board the clerk was directed to place upon the record the names of all the stockholders, with the number of shares held by each, on which twenty per cent. or more had been paid. The record shows the number of shares to be six thousand six hundred and forty-eight, and the amount paid on the same two hundred and sixty-seven thousand five hundred and sixty-nine dollars. Against the name of H. Haupt & Co. was set the number of five thousand shares. At this meeting the directors also voted to fix the capital stock at one million five hundred thousand dollars. 1858, September 3. The last vote was reconsidered, and it was voted that the capital stock be fixed at [Note: amount missing] as represented by the list of stock reported at the previous meeting.
