THIRTY-FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT. 



Taking into consideration the circumstances of a very eventful 

 period, your Committee is happy to present, on the whole, a 

 favourable report to the Club. 



During the year 1900, twenty-six new members were elected, a 

 number slightly below the last decennial average ; seventeen have 

 resigned, three were removed for non-payment of subscription, 

 and seven have been lost by death. The total on the list up to 

 December 31st last was 340. 



Beyond the decease of actual members there has occurred 

 another — to wit, Mr. Samuel Highley, who, although he had long 

 ago severed all connection with the Club, was one of the original 

 twelve enrolled. See " Early Memories of the Q.M.C.," by Dr. 

 M. C. Cooke, Journ. QJI.C, Vol. VII., No. 45, Nov. 1899. 



The attendances at the meetings have been fully maintained, 

 whilst the matter submitted on the ordinary business nights was 

 varied in character and of excellent quality. 



The following is a list of the more important communica- 

 tions : —
