and Associates. But no election of a Fellow shall be complete, neither shall the 

 name of any person so elected be printed in any list of the Institute, nor shall he be 

 entitled to exercise any of the privileges of a Fellow until he shall have paid his first 

 year's subscription, and his admission fee, or shall have compounded for the same as 

 hereinafter provided for ; and unless these payments be made within three calendar 

 months from the date of election, such election shall be void ; this time may, how- 

 ever, be extended at the discretion of the Council. 



14. Gentlemen resident in the Colonies or India, or elsewhere out of the United 

 Kingdom, being British subjects, may be elected as Non-Eesident Fellows in the 

 same manner as Eesident Fellows. Should any such Non-Resident Fellow come 

 to the United Kingdom permanently to reside, he shall be required to pay an ad- 

 mission fee of Three Pounds (less the sum, if any, paid by him as an admission fee 

 on election as a Non-Resident Fellow), and become a Resident Fellow of the 

 Institute ; but the last mentioned additional fee shall not be payable by any such 

 Non-Resident FeUow of fifteen years standing or upwards. 



15. The Council shall have the power of appointing as Honorary Fellows, Foreigners 

 or Colonists of distinction, or other persons, whose association with the Institute may 

 be considered advantageous ; but such Honorary Fellows shall not be entitled to 

 vote nor fill any office in the Institute. 



16. Any Fellow may withdraw from the Institute by signifying his wish to do so 

 by letter, addressed to the Secretary at the rooms of the Institute ; provided always 

 that such Fellow shall continue to be liable for his annual subscription for the year 

 in which he signifies his wish to withdraw. He shall further continue liable for 

 such annual subscription until he shall have discharged all sums, if any, due by 

 him to the Institute, and shall have returned all books or other property borrowed 

 by him of the Institute ; or shall have made full compensation for the same, if lost 

 or not forthcoming. 



17. The name of the Institute shall not be used as an address on any circular 

 letter, report, correspondence, or document of a business character intended for 

 publication, or any prospectus of a public company. 



18. Whensoever there shall appear to the Council to be cause for the removal of 

 the name of any FeUow of the Institute from the List of Fellows, or on receipt of 

 a requisition to that efiect with the reasons stated and signed by not less than twenty 

 Fellows of the Institute, the subject shall be taken into consideration by the Council ; 

 and if the Members of the Council present in each case and being not less than 

 twelve in number shall by a majority of not less than three-fourths determine to 

 remove such Fellow, his name shall be cancelled in the Register of Fellows, provided 

 that no such resolution shall be acted upon in the case of a Life Fellow unless the 

 resolution of the Council to remove such Fellow shall be confirmed by an ordinary 

 majority at a subsequent Meeting of the Council at which not less than twelve 

 Councillors are present. 



Fees and Subscriptions. 



19. Every Resident Fellow shall, on his election, be required to pay Three Pounds 

 as his admission fee, and Two Pounds as his annual subscription for the year ending 

 on the 31st December then next ensuing ; or he may compound for his annual sub- 

 scription, either at his entrance by the payment of Twenty Pounds, or after the 

 payment of five or more annual subscriptions by the payment of Fifteen Pounds.
