" No person whose subscription is unpaid shall have any of the priv leges of the institution, or until thee months after the first payment" - I OUTHERN AND TOXTETH HOSPITAL '0 THE TRUSTEES OF THE LI TORT LT The committee b :o the letter of Blessis. Cl ;ener'al rules in the report, the erWion in th ba made in the rules and rep ho.pital, unless notice shall h TOOL 8013TIIERN AND n reference eared In the and Minshu .st. If the I ecs will refer to the ec that rule 30 is as follows: es and renilations: No alteration shall ons for the management of this ave been given and recorded at the previous general meeting of the committee. stating the substancd of such intended alteration ; and at any meeting for carrying any such alteration into effect, not less than eight members of the committee shall be present, and not less than two•thirds of the meetinr shall constitute a majority, ereept such majority shall amount to more than one-half of th • whole committee." _ _ _ The pr , posal to alter rule 19, in the manner stated by Messrs. Churton and Minshull, was brought forward at the annual meeting in January, 1855, notice having been given, not at the previous general meeting of the committee, but only at a meeting of a sub-committee; and when put to the vote only five hands were held up in favour, and four against, many not voting at all. The treasurer, therefore. in sending in the report to the printer, considering thatlthe altera tion had not been regularly effected, caused rule 19 to remain un changed. rs it now stands, which, on being explained by him. was approved by the committee. The effect of this ought naturally to have been that one of the honorary surgeons should then have retired from office; but the matter was allowed to remain in abey ance until the first general meeting of the committee for this year, when attention was called to it. and a sub-committee appointed to investigate and report; of which sub-committee Mr. Minahnll was on.. The sub-committee reported that rule 19 had net been regu. larly altered, though recommending that the alteration should be effected in the manner proposed. The general committee. however. on receiving their report, after fail discussion (at which also Mr. Slinshull was present), adopted the former part of it; but resolved that it was expedient that the irregularity should no longer continue, thereby rendering it necessary to declare two vacancies at once. Strictly speaking. one of dr. honorary surgeons should have retired at the commencement of 1901 and a second at the commencement of the present year. It may be well to remind the trustees that the present honorary surgeons were appointed for a period not exceeding eleven. twelve, and thirteen years; but that the time was afterwards extended in their favour, in compliance with their wish. With retard to the personal bearing of the question, the commit -rt. to observe that notice of a motion was given at their last toms ke an alditlon to Rule 20, expressly with the view of ,ring the' present honorary surgeons, honorary consulting cur stoti e spital, after their retirement ; and also that a comp I - passe thanking the retiring surzeons for ' l . ser - ;ces, and respectfully r questing eeting, to make an Mill, their constant ition was pass,d and Invaluaw them to continue in office until their successors could be appointed. This resolution was duly forwarded to them by the president on the morning of Thursday last, and the committee can only regret that they had sent their letter fir publication before it reached them. The committee beg to sta'e, also, that their first official announce. ment of the vacancies was by public advertisement on the same stay s and that they have made no other official communication to any can didate for the vacant offices. This is not the place to en-er on any of the genaral considerations. in regard both to the hospital sect to the mAical profession, by which the committee may have been influenced. Their only aim now is to satisfy the trustees that the present course o' proceeding on the part of the committee. so far fro:u being irregular or unjustifiable, arises simply from an unwil lingness to permit the longer continuance of an existing irregularity, and a desire to pay str ct regard to the rules placed before them fog the'r guidance. in the conscientious belief that they shall thus bea; promote the interests of the important charity under their charge.
