THE CLOSING DOWN OF THE CLUB 
After much correspondence, unfortunately a number of members 
did not reply to the recent circular on the vexed question of closing 
down the Club or accepting the invitation from the B.E.C. to amalga- 
mate, on the understanding that the latter’s Committee would agree 
with their Secretary’s suggestion to alter the title to 
THE BOTANICAL SOCIETY of the BRITISH ISLES 
(Incorporating the B.E.C. and the Watson B.E.C. ). 
Sixteen members desire such amalgamation, seventeen vote for 
closing down entirely, two leave it to the officers to decide and two are 
neutral. Though wishing that a more definite vote were given, and 
appreciating the friendly offer of the senior Club (to which many of 
us already subscribe) the officers feel that the Watson Club had better 
close without union with any other Society.
