Y. 
Each Fellow, after his election, is expected to attend an Ordinary Meeting, 
and sign the Roll of Fellows, he having first made the payments required by 
Law VI. He shall be introduced to the President, who shall address him in 
these words : 
In the name and by the authority of THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF 
EDINBURGH , I admit you a Fellow thereof . 
PAYMENTS BY FELLOWS. 
VI. 
Each Fellow shall, before he is admitted to the privileges of Fellowship, pay 
an admission fee of two guineas, and a subscription of two guineas for the year 
of election. He shall continue to pay a subscription of two guineas at the 
beginning of each session so long as he remains a Fellow. A Fellow may com- 
pound for these contributions by a single payment of forty guineas, or on 
such other terms as the Council may from time to time fix.* 
VII. 
A Fellow who, after application made by the Treasurer, fails to pay any 
contribution due by him shall be reported to the Council, and, if the Council 
see fit, shall be declared no longer a Fellow. Notwithstanding such, declaration 
all arrears of contributions shall remain exigible. 
ELECTION OF HONORARY FELLOWS. 
VIII. 
Honorary Fellows shall be persons eminently distinguished in Science or 
Literature. They shall not be liable to contribute to the Society’s Funds. 
Personages of the Blood Royal may be elected Honorary Fellows without regard 
to the limitation of numbers specified in Law I. 
* Law VI does not apply to Fellows elected before 1917, whose terms of Fellowship are 
determined by the previously existing Laws.
