factory settlement not being arrived at with the Government Printer 

 (viz., to continue the old practice of charging only for actual cost of 

 printing and paper), that the matter be laid before the Government, 

 with a request for a continuance of the privilege enjoyed by the 

 Society for so many years, and which, if withdrawn, would seriously 

 affect the Society. 



5. The Honorary Treasurer proposed that the amounts owing by 

 gentlemen whose names have been struck off the roll of Member- 

 ship for arrears of subscriptions be recovered from them, if necessary 

 by course of law. The Honorary Treasurer stated that these out- 

 standings amounted to nearly Rs. 600, and all of the gentlemen in 

 arrears had received the publications of the Society for several years 

 and enjoyed all the privileges of Membership. 



Resolved, — That the matter do stand over for the next Meeting, 

 and that a draft rule be submitted to the Council at its next Meeting, 

 whereby no person shall be enrolled a Member, or receive any 

 publication of the Society, until his entrance fee be paid.
