 and therefore hoped it would be considered as his private opinion. 



Mr. Charles Brooke, the newly-elected President, then moved, and 

 Mr. F. H. Wenham seconded, the following resolution : — " That the 

 cordial thanks of the Society be returned to their retiring President 

 for the manner in which he had discharged the duties of his office." 

 He also moved, " That the thanks of the Society be presented to Mr. 

 Jabez Hogg on his retirement from an office he had long filled with 

 energy and assiduity." 



A further resolution was also moved by Mr. Frank Crisp, and 

 seconded by Mr. Ingpen, " That the thanks of the Society be pre- 

 sented to the Council, the Secretary, and Assistant-Secretary for their 

 valuable services during the past year." 



Both resolutions, having been put to the meeting by the President, 

 were unanimously carried, and the meeting was then adjourned to 

 5th March.
