8 CONSTITUTION. 



AETICLE XL 



' No alteration shall be made in this Constitution, unless by 

 a vote to that effect of three-fourths of the fellows and three- 

 fourths of the resident members entitled to vote under Arti- 

 cle V. 



' This clause must be taken in connection with Section 5 of the Char- 

 ter, which requires a previous request in writing of one-third of ail the 

 resident members (which must be considered in this case as including 

 fellows, as that class of members was not in existence at the time the 

 Charter was granted), submitted one month previous to any vote being 

 taken.
