The Committee feel that such services as have been given 
to the Society by Mr. Horace Brown and Dr. Morris should 
not remain without official recognition, and they will submit 
their names to you to-night for election as Hon. Members. 
In the early death of Mr. T. Knowles, the Society has lost 
one who was its President from 1891-3, and who has by his 
papers and his many other services contributed materially to 
the welfare of the Society. 
Messrs. J. G. Wells and J. E. Nowers, the joint Honorary 
Secretaries during the past year, find themselves obliged, 
through pressure of other work, to retire from the office, 
and deserve the hearty thanks of the members for the time 
and trouble they have bestowed upon the Society’s affairs, 
and the efficient way in which they have managed them. 
The financial position of the Society is very satisfactory, 
the balance in hand being £30 gs. 2d., whilst there is stand- 
ing to the credit of the investment account the sum of £40. 
Part of the cost of printing last year’s Transactions has still 
however to be paid. 
In accordance with Rule Il, the Rev. V. A. Boyle and 
Messrs. Hensman and A. J. Brown retire from the Committee, 
and are not eligible for re-election. 
The Report and Balance Sheet were adopted on the motion 
of Mr. Gibbs, seconded by Mr. Caney. 
The Officers. Committee, and some new members were then 
elected, a vote of thanks to the Chairman bringing the meeting 
to a close.
