to his acceptance. On being notified of liis election he de¬ 
clined to serve, hence no Secretary for 1901 has been elected. 
Dr. Ellis nominated Dr. F. C. Grenside for Treasurer. 
Nominations were voted closed, and Dr. Grenside was unani¬ 
mously elected Treasurer for 1901. 
Under the head of u New Business,” Dr. Clayton took up 
the old subject of how to enthuse the members to attend the 
meetings in greater numbers ; and the possibility of clinics at 
these meetings was suggested. This had the effect of stimulat¬ 
ing an animated discussion, in which Dr. Goubeaud, of Brook¬ 
lyn, took an active part; and the scheme seemed to meet the 
approval of all present, and it was finally agreed to try and 
arrange for a clinic at the next meeting, Dr. Parry volunteer¬ 
ing to stable the patients, be they one, or two, or three, after 
the operations. This offer was accepted. 
Dr. Hanson then reported to the association an illegal prac¬ 
titioner, whom he said he had in a position to prosecute, hav¬ 
ing all the necessary evidence, and an offer from Mr. Stevens 
to prosecute him for fifty dollars. Mr. Stevens was then intro¬ 
duced, and told the members how he would proceed in such a 
case, and made so favorable an impression on all present, that it 
was finally decided to give him the case to prosecute. 
The meeting was then formally adjourned and the members 
repaired to the lower hospital ward, to examine two interesting 
cases of paralysis in horses, one of the fore, the other of the 
hind extremity.
