Opis: Transactions of the Royal Scottish Arboricultural Society, Vol. 14 (Classic Reprint) - Society Royal Scottish Arboricultural

Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Scottish Arboricultural Society, Vol. 14

Gentlemen, - I confess to a feeling of diffidence in rising to address you from this Chair to day, inasmuch as I am disposed to call in question, in the interests of this and indeed of any society, the policy of retaining, for a lengthened period, one individual in the Presidents Chair; and I cannot but think that, in now for the fourth time choosing me to preside over your meetings, the limit to which such continuity of office is wise has been more than reached. I am fully sensible of your kindness, and I beg you will accept the warm expression of my appreciation of the honour you do me in again electing me to the Chair, and receive my acknowledgments of your continued confidence. I can only give you again my assurance that I shall endeavour, as far as is within my power, to promote the aims of the Society, and the progress of the science to which it is devoted.

I have been reminded, by those who are responsible for the arrangements connected with the Excursion, that the hour of starting necessitates our proceedings here being of short duration, - a gentle hint, I take it, that I should be brief in any remarks I make to you now, and I will therefore endeavour, in as small a compass as possible, to touch upon several topics concerning our work during the past year which I desire to bring before you.

It is my pleasing duty, first of all, to inform you that the Society is in a most prosperous condition.
