of Vice-Presidents, Treasurer, Secretary, and of four Members 
who were not on the last Council to be on the Council for the 
ensuing session, and formally to submit to the Society, for 
election at the Annual Meeting, the names so suggested. The 
Secretary shall make out and send to each Member of the 
Society, with the circular convening the Annual Meeting, a 
printed list of the retiring Council, stating the date of the 
election of each Member, and the number of his attendances at 
the Council Meetings during the past session; and another 
containing the names of the Members suggested for election, by 
which lists, and no others, the votes shall be taken. It shall, 
however, be open to any Member to substitute any other names 
in place of those upon the lists, sufficient space being left for 
that purpose. Should any list when delivered to the President 
contain other than the proper number of names, that list and 
the votes thereby given shall be absolutely void. Every list 
must be handed in personally by the Member at the time of 
voting. Vacancies occurring otherwise than by regular annual 
retirement shall be filled by the Council.

three or more Members, one of the proposers from personal 
knowledge. The nomination shall be read from the Chair at 
any Ordinary Meeting, and the Candidate therein recommended 
shall be balloted for at the succeeding Ordinary Meeting. Ten 
black balls shall exclude.

Secretary shall inform him thereof, by letter, and shall at the 
same time forward him a copy of the Laws of the Society.

month after the date of such election pay an Entrance Fee of 
Half a Guinea and an Annual Subscription of One Guinea 
(except in the case of Student Members); but the Council shall 
have the power in exceptional cases, of extending the period for 
such payment. No Entrance Fee shall be payable by Members
