While the Veterinary Archives 
Well fulfills its part 
By publishing comparative news 
Pertaining to our art. 
And should we wish an English work, 
Fleming’s is complete, 
In furnishing desirable news, 
It can with others well compete ; 
While Pathology and Therapeutics , 
That McFadyean does edit, 
Is certainly scientific 
And does the author credit. 
So in sending our subscriptions 
We can make no mistake 
If we make not one omission 
And do all such journals take ; 
But our duty does not end there— 
To read what others edit— 
Put } r our shoulder to the wheel, 
Write yourselves; and give your cases credit. 
In conclusion, fellow members, 
It is only just and fair 
To give my thanks for having been 
Elected to this chair ; 
And as the time has come again 
When you make a new selection, 
Gentlemen ; at once proceed 
With our annual election.
