animals in our zoological collection so long wished for by their 
respected colleague, Colonel Rede. 
Mr. Godfrey moved that Mr. T. R. James be reappointed Hon. 
Treasurer to the Society for the coming year. He felt sure the 
office of Hon. Treasurer could not be in better hands, as Mr. James 
had always taken great interest in the Society. 
Mr. C. M. Officer seconded Mr. James’ nomination, as he, too, 
felt sure they could not have a more capable Treasurer. 
The motion was pat to the meeting by the President, and carried 
unanimously, and Mr. James returned thanks to the Council. 
Major Purchas moved that Mr. F. R. Godfrey and Mr. C. M. 
Officer be elected the two Vice-Presidents for the ensuing year. 
They were both old members of the Council, and would worthily 
fill the position. 
Mr. James seconded the nomination, which, on being put to the 
meeting, was carried unanimously. 
Colonel Rede moved that Dr. Charles Ryan and Mr. G. W. 
Bruce be re-elected as members of the Council. 
This was seconded by Mr. Officer, and carried. 
Mr. Godfrey moved a vote of thanks to the Chairman, and the 
President returned thanks.
