^ ANNUAL MEETING. 



as compared with the previous year, while the numbers 

 under the head of Life Members, Annual Members, and 

 Life Associates remain nearly the same. There is a slight 

 diminution under the head of Hon. Corresponding Members, 

 only a few of whom pay the half- guinea which entitles them 

 to receive the Annual Volume of Transactions. The follow- 

 ing is an approximate statement of the constituency of 

 the Institute at the end of May, 1902 : — 



Life Members . . . . . . 42 in number. 



Annual „ . . . . . . 195 „ 



Life Associates . . . . . . 64 ,, 



Annual „ .. .. .. 511 „ 



Hon. Corresponding Members . . 177 „ 



Total . . 989 



The Council last year expressed the hope that during the 

 coming year an effort would be made to bring the adherents 

 up to the number of one thousand ; it will be observed that 

 this hope has been nearly realised, and it ought to be 

 fulfilled before the next report is issued.
