MEETING OF THE COUNCIL. 
June 4 th, 1873. 
Present—Messrs. Atherton, Baynes, Betty, Bottle, 
Brown, Greenish, Hampson, Hills, Owen, Radley, Rob¬ 
bins, Sandford, Savage, Schacht, Shaw, Stoddart, Sutton, 
Urwick, and Williams. 
Mr. W. Scott Brown having been elected Chairman 
until a President should be chosen, the minutes of the 
previous meeting were read and confirmed. 
Election of President. 
A vote by ballot having been taken in the usual man¬ 
ner, Mr. Thomas Hyde Hills was declared unanimously 
elected. 
The President having taken the chair expressed his 
appreciation of the kind feelings which had prompted his 
colleagues to confer this mark of honour upon him, and 
his intention to do all he could, relying on the hearty 
co-operation of every gentleman at the Council Board, to 
support all measures having for their object the advance¬ 
ment of pharmaceutical science and the improvement of 
the position of those engaged in pharmacy. 
Vice-President. 
Mr. Bottle was then elected Vice-President, and in 
thanking the Council for the honour they had done him, 
remarked that he felt he should be following in the steps 
of a very able man of business, who had rendered valuable 
services to the Society. It would be his province to en¬ 
deavour to imitate his predecessor’s good example, to 
support the President as an independent member of the 
Council, and to encourage everything which tended to 
promote the science of pharmacy and the success of phar¬ 
macists. 
Treasurer. 
Mr. Williams was elected Treasurer for the ensuing 
year and briefly returned thanks. 
The President then moved a cordial vote of thanks to 
the late President and Vice-President for their valuable 
services. 
The vote was immediately carried, and Mr. W. Scott 
Brown, in the absence of Mr. Haselden, which he re¬ 
gretted, acknowledged the compliment. He paid a hearty 
tribute to the zeal and ability displayed by the late 
President in his official capacity, and for his own part 
begged to say that he thanked the members of Council 
for the kindness which he had always received at their 
hands, more especially since they had adopted in his own 
case what he believed to be a right principle, in electing 
a provincial member as Vice-President. In discharging 
the duties of that office he had acquired a more thorough 
knowledge of the practical business of the Society than 
he before possessed. Living at such a distance from 
London he was glad to be relieved of so many calls 
upon his time, especially as he was succeeded by the gen¬ 
tleman whom—if he had had the selection—he should have 
chosen for the office.
