The obligations of the Society for these very liberal contributions
were conveyed with thanks to their respective contnbutois, and the
first gentleman on the list of donors was unanimously nominated a
Life Member of the Society.
Whether we look to the amount of each donation or to the purpose
for which it has been offered, the good sense and disinterested zeal of
the donors, for the well-being of this Institution, are conspicuous
throughout; and we are now happily placed in a position to hope
that when the <wishes of the several donors shall have been accom
plished, the Library will afford far more facilities to further the
objects of Geographical Science than it does at the present day. Appem
dix B shows the list of Books that have yet come out of the Cursetjee
Furdoonjee Paruck Presentation.”
The report submitted by the Secretary having been considered in
every way most satisfactory, it was unanimously resolved to adopt the
same, and the warmest thanks of the Society were voted to the Presi
dent, to the Secretary, and to the Office-bearers of the past year.
Mr. Kennedy then intimated his intention of leaving India for a
short time, and suggested that Lieut. Henry Morland, F.R.A.S.,
should he appointed his successor during his absence. He also
intimated that he proposed undertaking several duties connected with
the Society during his stay in England, with reference to giving effect
to the spirit of the several donations which had been made to the
Society during the past year.
