The bill was introduced into the House of Lords, read a first 
and second time, passed through Committee, read a third time, 
and passed without opposition. 
The Bill was sent from the House of Lords to the House of 
Commons, and, by the advice of Lord Beaumont, was placed 
under the charge of Mr. Hume. The Bill was read a first and 
second time without opposition, and sent into Committee. After

Times 22 July , 1851. 
From the feeling manifested by a large number of members 
of Parliament, your Committee are of opinion that if the subject 
was again brought forward at an earlier period of the session, 
there seems to be a reasonable probability of an Act being 
obtained. 
They, therefore, suggest that application be again made to 
Parliament to grant to the veterinary profession the same ex- 
emptions and privileges which were set forth in your late rejected 
Bill. 
The Committee beg to acknowledge the very efficient and 
laborous services rendered by Mr. Jagoe. 
The Committee also beg to acknowledge the zealous services 
of those gentlemen, members of the body corporate, to whom pe- 
titions were entrusted. 
The Committee beg leave to state that the whole of the ex- 
penses they have incurred amount to £78.. 11s.. 6c?.
