 Toledo, Ohio. 



As to the committee of three on time and place of holding 

 the next meeting, I wonld like to have some suggestions. I 

 ha\e two names I would like to place on that committee, 

 but the third one is lacking. Two are Messrs. Meehan and 

 Clark. 



Mr. Burniiam : I wc^uld like to name Mr. Frank M. 

 Miller, of New Orleans. 



President : The committee on time and place of meeting 

 will consist of Mr. W. E. Meehan. Harrisburg, Pa. ; Mr. 

 Frank N. Clark, Northville. Alich., and Mr. Frank M. 

 Miller. New Orleans. La. 



The chair would like to defer the appointment of the 

 committee on resolutions until the next session. 



Before the papers are read. I think the committee on 

 papers should arrange them, keeping in mind the fact that 

 in the reading of papers preference is to be given to the 

 authors who are present. 



Mr. John E. Gunckel : You know that I am the only 

 resident member in the city of Toledo. In corresponding 

 with the ])resident, Dr. Bean, and the secretary, Mr. Pea- 

 bo(h', we made arrangements to meet here in September, for 

 I have found, after being a commodore for a great many 

 years that we could entertain you very nicely in the month 

 of September. But after Mr. Peabody discovered that some 

 of the fish hatchery people could not come here in Septem- 

 l)er. the time of meeting was suddenly changed, with about 

 10 days' notice, to this date. That left me in bad condition 

 to make arrangements to entertain you as fishermen 

 should be entertained, our mayor being away, our yacht men 

 all out. and oiu" hook-and-line fishermen all busy. Fortu- 

 nateh\ though, the Castalia Trout Clul). which has a na- 

 tioual reputation, came in and offered to take care of us on 

 Thursdav. and part of the reading of your papers or discus- 

 sion of papers can be carried on in their building at Castalia,
