 of the Society who were serving with the colours either at home 

 or abroad, and a further list containing 60 additional names

 been reported since last Annual Meeting : — The Hon. Godfrey 

 Macdonald; Corporal Donald Grant; Captain Thomas Alison;

 1376 being 56 less than last year.

 the personnel of the Council, Mr Gillanders resigned on his

 in March last, was succeeded by Mr Thomas Bryden, Nursery- 

 man, Ayr.

 members will notice that the matter is less in quantity they will 

 find that it is of the usual high quality.
