The President said that it would no doubt be remembered that some time 

 ago two gentlemen, Mr. Horncastle and Mr. Crisp, had presented the Club with 

 sums of money amounting together to £8. The committee thought that the 

 best use they could make of this would be to procure such books for the library 

 as should be of real value to the members. The opportunity occurred of 

 purchasing some valuable works from Mr. Cooke, and it was intended to 

 inscribe them as having been presented to the library by the two gentlemen who 

 had given the money.
