Election of Two Honorary Members. 
The President then said that there were two nominations for Honor- 
ary Membership, Miss M. S. Campbell and Lady Davy. Of Miss Camp- 
bell he had already spoken. Lady Davy was one of our “oldest” and 
keenest members, and it would be a pleasure to honour her for all the 
work she had done. On the proposal of Mr. Ash, seconded by Dr. War- 
burg, both members were unanimously elected. 
Any Other Business. 
Dr. Dony announced that there were still a few vacancies for the 
Quendon Meeting. He also said that he had so far received only eight 
applications for the Manchester Meeting, and it was urgent that more 
should api>ly. 
Miss Campbell stated that it had not so far been possible to fix a 
date for the official transplanting of Schoenus ferrugineus, as the water 
level in Loch Tummel had been raised temporarily at short notice. Dr. 
Berry had sent a representative who moved a number of plants to the 
new site. It was expected that the water would be drawn off before 
the level of the Loch was raised to its new height permanently, and 
she would give notice of further arrangements as soon as possible to 
those members who had offered to help in the removal of plants. 
Mr. Rose suggested that there should be Regional Secretaries who 
might take some of the work off the Secretary in such matters as excur- 
sions and conservation of local plants. Miss Camjibell stated that such 
duties were already undertaken by Local Secretaries and/or Recorders. 
The President thanked members who had attended and hoped that 
they would all have a successful year and be able to report progress at 
the end of it. 
Mr. Ash thanked the President for presiding. 
A vote of thanks was passed to the Linnean Society for the use of 
their rooms.
