Club’s funds would be more wisely devoted to extending the 
Menorrs. It was desirable that several back numbers of the But- 
LETIN be reprinted, so as to allow of preparing a number of full 
sets of the volumes. 
The Club, upon motion of Dr. Rusby, authorized the Editors 
to reprint the deficient numbers of the BULLETIN in accordance 
with the suggestion contained in the report. 
Under Election of Officers, Dr. Wheelock moved that the sec: 
retary be instructed to cast an affirmative ballot for the reelection 
of all the present officers. The motion was seconded and unani- 
mously adopted. 
Upon motion by Dr. Britton, the Secretary was requested to 
Place upon the minutes a suitable entry recognizing the character 
and worth of the late Justus F. Poggenburg, and his connection with 
and services to the Club and to the cause of Botany, and to com- 
municate a copy of the same to his family. 
The regular paper of the evening was then presented by 
Britton, entitled « Notes on the Herbarium of Stephen Elliott. 
An abstract is printed in this number of the BULLETIN.
