REPORT OF SOCIETY’S MEETINGS. 217 
Mr. Hargreaves said it had been suggested to him by 
a soda water manufa€turer that perhaps these well waters 
might be used to advantage in his business. The Presi- 
dent in reply stated that they would a& as purgatives. 
The Assistant Secretary said that somewhere in the 
thirties there was a ‘‘ Demerara Spa” in Main Street, 
with baths, drinking counters, a reading room and all the 
necessaries of such fashionable resorts, 
Mr. Jacob Conrad spoke of the same waters having 
been once used by the physicians at the Garrison. 
Mr. Luke M. Hill was thanked for the document, which 
it was agreed should be incorporated with the proceedings 
of the Society. 
' In reply to a question of Mr. Conrad, the President 
said that the Dire€tors had not altered their decision to 
illuminate their buildings at the Diamond Jubilee. 
Mr. Hargreaves spoke of the Jubilee Committee’s re- 
commendation zof to illuminate in Water Street, and 
asked that the rules be suspended to allow him to make 
a motion at once. In view of the opinion that it was 
undesirable to incur even the slightest risk to their valu- 
able colleétions, and the general acceptance of the Com- 
mittee’s recommendation, he would ask that the building 
be not illuminated, 
The rule having been suspended, the motion was 
seconded by Mr. Luke M. Hill and carried by a majority. 
The meeting then terminated.
