The Treasurer’s financial statement for the year shewed a 
balance in hand of £2 3s. 6d. There were a few outstanding 
liabilities, but on the other hand some subscriptions had not yet 
been paid. There had been an increase in the Society’s receipts 
during the year, but the expenditure also had largely increased. 
There had been a slight increase in the membership of the 
Society, which now stood at 145 members and four associates, 
instead of 140 members and one associate at the beginning of the 
session. 
The Council regretted to have to record the fact that one of 
the founders and original members of the Society, Mr. Barclay 
Phillips, had died. ‘The only other surviving founder was Mr. 
George de Paris, who was to be proposed as an hon. member of 
the Society. 
The Hon. Librarian’s report showed that the number of 
books issued to members during the year had been 59, and the 
library had, as heretofore, been available to the general public for 
purposes of reference.
