REPORT TO THE COUNCIL OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE 
OF VETERINARY SURGEONS 
FROM THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO COLLECT AND ARRANGE 
MATERIALS PREPARATORY TO THE PUBLISHING OF A NEW AND 
CORRECT REGISTER OF MEMBERS. 
The Registration Committee, in making a report of the result 
of their labours, have to state, 
That the following Circular has been issued : — 
Sir, Rolls Buildings, Fetter Lane, Sept. 1846. 
The registry of the members of the Royal College of Veterinary 
Surgeons being found to be very imperfect, and the College having 
admitted many new members the addresses of whom are not known, 
the Council of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons have ap- 
pointed a Committee to collect information and arrange the same, 
preparatory to the publication of a new Registration List. 
Such information as you may be able to furnish under any of 
the following heads will confer an obligation on the Committee. 
The object of the following inquiries being the protection of the 
certified members, and the removal of the liabilities under which 
they at present labour (an application to Parliament for this pur- 
pose being in contemplation), as well as the improvement of the 
Registration List, a speedy answer will oblige. 
I am, Sir, 
Your obedient servant, 
W. Arthur Cherry, 
Hon. Sec. to the Registration Committee.
