The President said it was thought desirable to appoint Trustees for the 
Society’s property, and on the recommendation of the Council the members 
elected Mr. Bretherton, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Upton. 
The President moved that the very warm thanks of the members be 
accorded Mr. Baddeley for his services to the Club during the four years 
of his Presidency, which, during a time of peculiar difficulty, had always been 
rendered in a most thorough and admirable way. 
Mr. Carles seconded, and spoke of the great debt which they owed to 
Mr. Baddeley. The charm and fulness of his knowledge, which had been 
given them so freely, were beyond words. 
Mr. Austin said that he had been very closely associated with Mr. Baddeley 
during his term of office, and he wished to place on record his sense of the 
value of the ex- President’s services. Mr. Baddeley had taken a most 
practical interest in all that concerned the affairs of the Club, and at considerable 
personal inconvenience had been present at all but one of their meetings. 
The period of the war had tried all societies, and he thought few could have 
had a more helpful President in the past four years than they had been so 
fortunate in having. 
The President’s motion was carried with acclamation. 
The Secretary reported the Council’s suggestions for Field Meetings, 
and the following provisional programme was arranged : — 
May 8 — Andoversford. 
June 12 — May Hill. 
July 10 — Painswick. 
Sept. 4 — Bourton-on-the- Water. 
The following Candidate for membership was approved for ballot at 
the next meeting : — 
H. A. Pearce, Silverdale, Hucclecote, proposed by Roland Austin, 
seconded by T. S. Ellis. 
The President read a paper on “ The Silurian Rocks of May Hill,” for 
which he was warmly thanked.
