Extract

My first duty is to repeat my most cordial thanks to you for the high honor you have done me in electing me to be your President; my next to proceed at once to the delivery of the address which your successive Presidents are expected to give. I feel reluctant to depart from the order laid down by our Secretary, but perceiving that it is my duty to guide your proceedings, and as the business to be brought before you is two-fold, I will divide my address. This morning I will examine into the organization and objects of the association, since these must come before you, and in the afternoon, if time permit, will make a few remarks on the progress and prospects of Mental Science.

∗ This paragraph was written before the meeting of Council on the 2nd of August, It appears, however, to be a correct conclusion, as at that meeting the General Secretary, in explanation of the fact that no minutes of Council had ever been taken, stated that it was a purely honorary body. So also as to the office of President. The Secretary had received a letter addressed officially to the President, of date June 19th, and written by the Secretary of the Royal Medico-Chirurgical Society, but he had withheld it from the President on the ground that he was a purely honorary officer,—T.L.
