correction of, typographical errors, always a work of difficulty, 
but, from the peculiar nature of a register, one requiring unusual 
care and labour; which being done, the list will then be pub¬ 
lished ready for circulation. 
“Arthur Cherry, 
“ Registrar.” 
Prof. Simonds mentioned the various sources whence the 
Committee had sought and obtained the information they 
required, and the difficulties they had met with in the com¬ 
pilation of the register, owing to the imperfect state of some of 
the records, and the mislaying of some of the minute books of 
the College. He believed however, that, after the labours of 
the Committee had been completed, there would not be six 
names omitted from the list during the sixty years that had 
elapsed since the examinations were commenced. 
Mr. Turner drew attention to the fact that several persons 
were practising with their fathers’ diplomas. 
Prof. Simonds stated that others were practising with certi¬ 
ficates of fellowship of the old Veterinary Medical Society, 
without having passed the Examining Board. 
Mr. A. Cherry suggested that the price of the Register 
should be either two shillings and sixpence or one shilling, 
instead of one shilling and sixpence as heretofore. 
Mr. Wilkinson advocated the low'er charge, in order to extend 
the circulation of the document. 
The President said the question ought not to be one of a re¬ 
munerating profit; but every effort should be made to circulate 
the list as widely as possible, not only among veterinary sur¬ 
geons, but more especially among their employers. 
Mr. Henderson suggested that the Charter and Bye Laws 
should be bound with the Register. 
Mr. J. Turner considered that, if these additions were made, 
the names of the officers of the College should be placed in the 
book. It was due to the President, the members of the Council, 
and the members of the Board, that a page should be devoted 
to them. 
The Report of the Registration Committee was then unani¬ 
mously received. 
It was announced that the Register would be published and 
ready for circulation at the next quarterly meeting. 
Messrs. J. Turner, Henderson, and the Secretary, having 
been named by the President as the Committee of Supervision, 
the proceedings terminated.
