The Honorary Treasurer laid over the following state- 
ments: — 
1. Annual Statement of the receipts and expendi- 
ture during 1886. 
2. Quarterly Statement to 31st December. 
3. Statement of Accounts for Local Museum. 
4. Statement of Accounts for Local Exhibition. 
On the motion of the President, seconded by Mr. M. 
Garnett, Messrs. J. S. Hill and D. C. Cameron were ap- 
pointed Auditors to examine the accounts. 
Mr. C. H. G. Legge in rising to propose the motions 
standing in his name, asked permission to alter the order 
of the motions, as he wished to propose the second one 
first. 
This being allowed, he moved : — 
That the ordinary members of the Society shall have the privilege of 
taking out a larger number of volumes of books than now allowed ; that 
the distinction between " Ordinary Members" and "Associates" 
should be that M Associates " will only be entitled to the use of the 
Library and Reading-rooms, and that the by-laws and rules relating 
thereto respectively be altered accordingly. 
Mr. N. D. Davis seconded the motion, which was 
supported by Mr. Wolseley, Mr. Chas. Winter and 
Archdeacon Austin ; and opposed by Capt. Duncan, 
and Mr. de Jonge. Mr. Legge said he washed his motion 
to be taken simply as a recommendation to the Dire6lors 
who would determine the number of volumes to be taken 
out by a member. 
On being put to the vote, the motion was carried by 
a majority of one.
