194 Anniversary Address. 



indulgent manner in whicli you have received and supported 

 me in my office ; my special thanks are due to our worthy 

 and indefatigable Secretary, Mr. Tate, who has so ably 

 assisted me with the minutes and details of our proceedings 

 during the past year, which I have now, to the best of my 

 ability, endeavoured to lay before you. In conclusion, allow 

 me to congratulate the Club on its increasing prosperity ; 

 several new members have been elected, all of whom will, I 

 trust, use their best exertions and talents, each to contribute 

 something towards the general information and usefulness 

 of the Club, to the advancement of science and increase of 

 knowledge. May we all continue to be united in the same 

 social good fellowship which has hitherto subsisted, and, in 

 the words of our never to be forgotten founder, '' may the 

 Club live for ever."
