866 ROYAL COLLEGE OF VETERINARY SURGEONS. 
Central Veterinary Medical Society had omitted to renew 
the application for the use of the College House for the 
ensuing year. He thanked the Council for the use of the 
hoard-room in the past, and, as a member of the Council, 
he would move “That the hoard-room he placed at the 
disposal of the Central Veterinary Medical Society for the 
ensuing twelve months, and that its ordinary general meet- 
ings he held on the days succeeding the quarterly meetings 
of the Council.” 
Mr. Fleming seconded the motion, which was agreed to. 
The Secretary suggested that some gratuity should be 
given to the servants for the extra cleaning of the rooms, &c. 
Mr. Fleming said that the Society would be quite willing 
to pay all expenses incurred, and they would attend to the 
suggestion. 
The President having announced the termination of the 
quarterly meeting of the Council, the meeting was made 
special. 
Mr. Wilkinson then moved that an addition he made to 
Bye-law 33 to the following effect : — ■“ That no rejected pupil 
shall he eligible for re-examination unless he produces a 
certificate of having received further instruction at one of 
the recognised schools.” 
He had already explained the reason for this addition to the 
bye-law, and it would therefore not be necessary to detain 
the meeting by going into further explanation. 
Mr. Silvester seconded the motion, which was agreed to. 
The President announced that a special meeting of the 
Council would be held on that day fortnight, in order to con- 
firm this alteration of the bye-law. 
Cheques were ordered to be drawn for the examiners’ fees 
and also the insurances payable at Christmas. 
The Council then adjourned.
