xlvi Annual General Meeting pf Governors and Members , 
made that the Society saw before it a 
good sound future might be fulfilled ; 
and if this should be the case it would 
be because every Member of the Council 
had put his back into the work, and 
had loyally supported the President in 
anything that had been necessary for 
carrying on what certainly had been 
arduous work during his period of 
office. He could not sit down upon 
that occasion without saying how much 
the Society owed to Mr. McRow and 
the staff, who, in spite of great difficul- 
ties in moving into their new house, 
had carried on without hitch the work 
of the Society during that time.
