The proposition of the Board of Dire6lors, that Mr. 

 J. J. Quelch be ele£led an honorary member, was laid 

 over according to rule. 



On behalf of the Direflors, the Chairman informed 

 the meeting that it had been decided to celebrate the 

 Jubilee of the Society in some suitable manner. On the 

 1 6th of March ensuing it would complete the fiftieth 

 year of its existence, but as that date fell on a Sunday, 

 they proposed to hold a Conversazione on some later 

 day. The Book Committee were deputed to prepare 

 an exhibition of rare books and other relics of the past, 

 and it was for the meeting to suggest a Committee 

 to arrange other matters conne6led with the celebra- 

 tion. 



Mr. Jacob Conrad moved and Capti A, Duncan 

 seconded — 



•' That the Direflors appoint a Committee to arrange for the Jubilee 

 Celebration." 



As an amendnjent it was moved by Mr. Hargreaves 

 and seconded by Mr. Mackay, " that a Committee for 

 the purpose be now elected." On being put to the 

 vote the amendment was lost and the motion carried. 



The Honorary Treasurer laid over his Financial State- 

 ment (annexed) for 1863, which was adopted. 



He then moved in accordance with the rule, " that the 

 surplus funds, amounting to $739 52, be placed in the 

 hands of the Dire6lors to be used in any way they think 

 best for the benefit of the Society." This was seconded 

 by Mr. Gillespie and carried unanimously.
