ABSTRACT FROM THE JUNTO MINUTE BOOK. 125 



Some explanations of the Articles of Union of the 

 joint Committee asked for, and amplifications made, 

 by the American Philosophical Society, to prevent 

 any misunderstanding. The latter agreed to by the 

 American Society unanimously. The Societies then 

 exchanged their lists of members. 



On the minutes of the American Society are inserted 

 at length, their list of members, as well as the list 

 of the American Philosophical Society, furnished to 

 them by the latter. 



The Committee of the American Society reported 

 that the Philosophical Society had voted the union on 

 the terms reported by the joint Committee, and as 

 explained this evening. Whereupon, the American 

 Society resolved unanimously to unite with the Philo 

 sophical Society on these terms. 



Dec. 30th. The treasurer presented his account, 

 from which it appeared that there was not money 

 in his hands sufficient to defray the debts of the 

 Society; whereupon a Committee was appointed to 

 settle finally with the Treasurer; and in case the 

 outstanding admission money is not sufficient to pay 

 the debts of the Society, the Committee, with the 

 Treasurer, was empowered to lay an assessment on 

 the Fellows to discharge them. 



The members were desired to meet at the College 

 on the succeeding Monday (Jan. 2, 1769) to elect offi 

 cers of the United Society.
