ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING. 
for the benefit of the profession at large : he considered nothing at 
all, for all they had done was to quarrel with the two schools. 
Mr. A. Cherry complained that, in the matter of registration, 
Mr. Cherry, sen., had himself refused to assist the Council by 
affording them the valuable information he was in the possession 
of in his official capacity in the army. 
Mr. Cherry, senior, denied the truth of that statement. 
Mr. Henderson confirmed the truth of Mr. A. Cherry’s assertion. 
Professsor Spooner would appeal to several gentlemen present, 
whose faces he recognized, as having been benefited by his instruc- 
tions ; and in the conclusion of his address, he spoke in strong 
language as to the conduct and character of Mr. May hew, which 
occasioned considerable confusion and excitement. 
Mr. Mayhew with much heat rose to reply, but was stopped by 
The President, who said that much had been said by the speakers 
on both sides in which he had not interfered ; but the discussion 
had now come to a point at which he felt he should not be perform- 
ing his duty as President if he did not interfere. Some of the 
speakers had now come to personalities, which he could no longer 
permit, as sufficient had been said by Professor Spooner to enable 
Mr. Mayhew to call upon him to answer it in another place. 
Mr. Mayhew immediately left the room. 
The President then put the amendment of Professor Dick to the 
meeting, when there appeared for it six, against it twenty, and the 
amendment was declared lost. The original motion was then put, 
when there was for it twenty-six, and against it four. The original 
motion was declared carried. 
The President said they would now proceed with the election of 
six members of the Council in the room of those retiring. 
Professor Dick wished to know if they were not to have the 
Report of the Examiners read. 
The President said they must now proceed to the election. That 
could be read after the election. 
Mr. A. Cherry proposed that Mr. Braby and Mr. Vines be 
appointed scrutineers. 
Professor Dick seconded the motion, which was carried. 
The Election was then taken by ballot in the usual manner, and 
the result was, that Messrs. Mayer, Gabriel, Dick, and Goodwin 
were re-elected ; and that Messrs. Godwin, of Birmingham and 
Silvester, of St. Albans, were chosen in place of Messrs. Lang- 
worthy and C. Percivall.
