Thursday,  December  1904.  xciii 
to  supplement  tliat  vote  by  sending  in 
their  subscriptions  to  the  fund  for  the 
promotion  of  the  Society’s  interests. 
The  Earl  of  Feveesham  said  there 
was  evidently  a strong  feeling  in  favour 
of  having  a Show  next  year,  and  he 
for  one  quite  agreed  with  that  feeling, 
but  the  holiling  of  a Show  depended 
upon  wliether  gentlemen  would  come 
forward  with  further  subscriptions. 
He  hoped  that  Members  would  take 
that  into  consideration,  and  try,  before 
the  next  meeting  of  the  Council  took 
place  in  January,  to  obtain  sufficient 
funds  to  enable  the  Society  to  carry 
on  the  Show. 
The  vote  of  thanks  having  been 
carried  by  acclamation. 
The  President,  in  acknowledging 
the  vote,  said  he  hoped  that  when 
they  next  met  they  would  be  able  to 
announce  their  intention  to  hold  a 
Show  next  year  at  Park  Royal,  and 
that  Members  would  in  the  meantime 
use  their  best  endeavours  to  get  the 
money  together  which  was  required  for 
the  purposes  of  the  Show. 
The  formal  proceedings  of  the  meet- 
ing then  terminated,  but  at  the  retjuest 
of  a large  number  of  Members  who 
remained,  Mr.  Arthur  E.  Clarke, 
of  Messrs.  Garrard,  James,  and  Wolfe, 
Solicitors  to  the  Society,  read  the  draft 
of  the  Petition  and  Supplemental 
Charter,  and  explaineil  the  efiect  of 
its  provisions. 
Notice  is  hereby  given  that  the  Sixty-Sixth  Anniversary  Meeting  of  Governors 
and  Members  of  the  Royal  Agricultural  Society  of  England  will,  in  accordance 
with  Clause  6 of  the  Charter  of  1840,  be  held  at  the  Society’s  House,  13  Hanover 
Square,  London,  W.,  on  MONDAY,  MAY  22,  1905,  at  Noon,  when  the  Half-yearly 
Report  of  the  Council  will  be  read,  and  the  election  of  the  President,  Trustees,  and
