4th ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING. 
This meeting was held at the Oriental Hotel on the 4th Decem- 
ber 1913, when 24 members and 1 guest were present. The first 
business was the consideration of a revised and amplified draft of the 
rules of the Society, submitted by the Committee. These were passed 
after some discussion and amendment-—the most important alteration 
being the raising of the subscription from Tes. 5 to Tes. 25 per annum 
in order to meet the cost of publishing a Journal by the Society. Mr. 
W. J. F. Williamson and Dr. M. Smith were appointed Editors of the 
Journal. 
Mr. K. G. Gairdner then read a paper entitled “Notes on the 
Fauna and Flora of the Ratburi and Petchaburi Districts”. A coloured 
chart of the districts was shown and also a coloured drawing made by 
Mr. E Healey of a rare Ibis, of which a specimen had been obtained 
by Mr. Gairdner. At the conclusion of the paper Dr. M. Smith 
exhibited some species of snakes not previously recorded from Siam. 
Mr. J. J. McBeth showed the skin of a Marbled Cat. 
Mr. S. H. Cole attended this meeting in the capacity of Hon. 
Secretary and Treasurer of the Society, having taken over the duties 
of that office from Mr. Gairdner who was shortly proceeding on duty 
up-country.
