That the receipts for the insurance be forwarded to the 
Secretary annually.^^ 
The motion having been put from the chair^ was lost. 
The Secretary reported that five condidates^ late pupils of 
the Royal Veterinary College^ London, had been admitted 
members of the body corporate. Also that one candidate, 
holding the Highland and Agricultural Society's certificate, 
had passed his examination before a Committee of the vete- 
rinarv members of the Court of Examiners. The names of 
«/ 
the successful candidates were then read, together with 
those of the examiners and ex-officio members who were
