Mr. Yizer : I feel rather personally upon the question that is before the meeting 
this morning, and when I found that there was the probability of a discrepancy in 
our returns, I must confess I went home somewhat downcast, inasmuch as having taken 
rather a prominent position in the previous morning’s meeting, I felt that my character, 
perhaps, was particularly at stake with respect to this question. But I hope that 
every gentleman here will believe that I should not lend myself to such a diabolical 
act, which I regret one of our members has stained his hands with. Therefore, I do 
most earnestly hope that it may go forth that certainly I am not a party in any way 
to this discrepancy, and that whatever my personal feelings may be in fact, I may 
say that I acted not so much from personal feeling as upon a question of principle 
with regard to the position of the party of whom I spoke ; therefore, under those 
circumstances, every scrutineer who served that morning should have his character 
most distinctly and fully cleared. My own opinion is, that the Council ought to pa^s 
some such resolution as will completely take away any possibility of a shadow of a 
doubt as to the character of those gentlemen who served unfortunately with Mr. 
Dickinson. 
The Chairman : Mr. Young has just arrived, and has, I understand, a short report 
to make, which will probably answer all the purposes which Mr. Yizer has sug¬ 
gested. 
Mr. Young : I have to apologize for being somewhat late, but I will read the short 
report which I have drawn up, and shall be very happy to afford you any further in¬ 
formation which you may require.

Report op Turquand, Youngs and Co. 
\Ye beg to report that in compliance with a resolution passed at a meeting of the 
Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, held on Friday, the 20th May, 1870, we have, 
in conjunction w r ith such of the scrutineers as w r ould again undertake the office of 
scrutineer, carefully examined the whole of the voting papers, having, in each of the 
four sections, one of our assistants either giving down tiie names of the candidates for 
whom votes were recorded, or checking the gentlemen who called the names, and 
another recording the votes in each section. 
The result of the scrutiny of Thursday, as compared with that conducted by us to¬ 
day, will be seen on reference to the annexed statement marked A, which shows the 
number of votes recorded in favour of each candidate, according to the respective 
returns, and the difference, in each case, between Thursday’s return and that of to¬ 
day. The only material discrepancies occur in Section Ho. 2, in which the following 
candidates were accorded more votes than were really given in their favour, viz.:— 
Ho. 19 . . .76 votes. 
„ 26 . . . 49 „ 
— 125
