A paper by Dr. W. B. Wallace was then presented by Dr. 
Bell, entitled, “ Fracture of the Os Pedis,” in which a 
rather remarkable case was reported, which, according-to the 
views of most members present, was due to osteo-porosis. 
On motion of Dr. Stull, it was determined to secure nec¬ 
essary funds for assisting in entertainment of the International 
Veterinary Congress by subscription. 
Hearty good will prevailed throughout the meeting ; the 
papers submitted were very good,.the discussions were un¬ 
usually spirited and instructive, the attendance was larger 
than at any previous meeting, and the additions to member¬ 
ship also exceeded in number and value those of any prior 
meeting, so that on the whole those present felt greatly en¬ 
couraged, and considered this the best meeting in the history 
of the Indiana Veterinary Association. 
The meeting was then adjourned, to convene at New¬ 
castle early in July.
