Eleventh Annual Meeting. 37 



amicably the unfortunate dispute with Mr. Buckland for 

 alleged infringement of copyright. Although the re- 

 publishing of the article in question was for the good 

 of Bird Protection, Mr. Buckland pressed his claim for 

 damages, and his lawyers (Messrs. Colyer & Colyer of 

 London) presented a bill of costs for £15 16s. It 

 was resolved to absolve the Secretary and the Editors 

 from blame and any expense in the matter, and to 

 tender to Messrs. Witherby & Co. the appreciation of the 

 meeting for their kindly assistance.
