General Meeting, Tuesday, June 21, 1892. 
Presentation of Stallion Medals. 
The President next presented the 
Gold Medals, awarded by the Society 
through the Warwick Local Com- 
mittee, to the owners of the three 
thoroughbred stallions which won the 
service premiums of 200Z. each at the 
Spring Show held in London in March 
last, viz. : to Mr. E. G. Crowhurst for 
“ Just-in-Time,” to Lord Tredegar for 
“ Lord Molynoo,” and to Mr. J. C. 
Harford for “ Rameses.” 
Vote of Thanks to Mayor and 
Corporation of Warwick. 
H.R.H. Prince Christian said he 
had been asked to move “ That the 
best thanks of the Society are due, 
and are hereby tendered, to the 
Mayor and Corporation of Warwick 
for their cordial reception of the 
Society.” He did so with great plea- 
sure, because he was sure they all 
must feel very grateful for the cordial 
reception which they had received. 
The Mayor and Corporation had done 
everything they could to meet the 
wishes of the Royal Agricultural 
Society, and he felt quite sure that 
if the Meeting that year should 
prove a success, as he believed and 
trusted, it would be chiefly due to 
the kind endeavours of the Mayor 
and Corporation. (Cheers.) 
Mr. C. S. Mainwaring said that 
as Senior Steward of Stock it was his 
agreeable duty to second the resolu- 
tion which had been proposed by 
H.R.H. Prince Christian. He felt 
great personal pleasure in so doing, 
because he remembered, as he had the 
honour of being one of the Committee 
of Inspection when they came to view 
the site, the hospitality then extended 
to them by the Mayor and Corpora- 
tion of W arwick. They had decorated 
the town most beautifully, and had 
done all that lay in their power to 
add to the success of the Show. 
The vote having been carried by 
acclamation, 
The Mayor (Mr. J. W. Mann) cor- 
dially thanked them on behalf of the 
Corporation, and also on behalf of 
the Executive Committee, for their 
very kind vote of thanks, and for the 
expressions conveyed by His Royal 
Highness. They trusted that the 
Show would be entirely satisfactory,

and that the Society would look back 
with pleasure upon their visit to 
Warwick. He hoped that the twen- 
tieth century might not be far 
advanced before the Society came 
there again, when he was sure they 
would have a welcome as cordial, and 
he trusted a success as great, as he 
hoped would be the case upon the 
present occasion. (Cheers.) 
Vote of Thanks to Local Committee. 
The Earl of Ravensworth said he 
had been asked to propose “ That the 
best thanks of the Society are due and 
are hereby tendered to the Warwick 
Local Committee for their exertions 
to promote the success of the Meet- 
ing.” They were doubtless all aware 
how much depended upon the exer- 
tions of the Local Committee wherever 
they had their Meeting, and the 
handsome, liberal manner in which 
on every occasion within his recollec- 
tion (and it was a long one) they had 
been assisted and aided in every 
possible way by the Local Committee. 
On no occasion had those exertions 
been more valuable and more freely 
extended than by the Warwick Com- 
mittee. He should ask permission to 
couple with the resolution the name 
of an old friend of his own. Lord 
Leigh, who, for the second time 
during the last generation, had taken 
an active part in promoting the success 
of their great exhibition in that town. 
Mr. Rowlandson, as Steward of 
Implements, had great pleasure in 
seconding the motion. Every re- 
quirement of the Implement Stewards 
had been most satisfactorily attended 
to by the Warwick Local Committee. 
The motion having been carried 
unanimously. 
Lord Leigh thanked his noble 
friend (Lord Ravensworth' very much 
indeed for the kind manner in which 
he had proposed the resolution of 
thanks. He was extremely pleased 
to see the Royal Agricultural Society 
again visiting their old town, and 
he thought their thanks were due to 
Lord Warwick for having placed his 
magnificent park at their disposal. 
Lord Ravensworth had alluded to his 
having taken a part at the time when 
the Royal Agricultural Society was at 
AVarwick in 1869 — thirty-three years 
ago. It did not often fall to the lot
