Mr. Denxte • Mr. Cole and I failed to remove the
impremion. Mr. Rowe thought Mr. Talbot and Mr.
Ford had "ruAhed " him, although they tried to show
ouch waa not the cue.

rTlit-rt-in-iw.:ned that the best thanka.4 this
meeting be accorded Messrs. Talbot and Ford for
the manner in which they had discharged their duties
44 directors of the club, and that they be armored of
the etude ar.il unabated confidence of the members.
This was seconded by Mt. V iliilçT and carried.
In nediondiup, Mr. T.lLwr said he was Nuch
obiiimi fur the way in which the vote of thank.. Issol
been given to Mr. Ford and himself. If they had
acted in a different wanner from what they had they
you'd not have behaved in au honourable way. They
might bate done something which wnuld have been
more to tlor'intetest ~f Mr. Rowe, giving him any
GUM he chow to ask, allotting bin, to ',tit the horees
where hr liked, and without the neonuary fodder
accomniodation, but, if they had, they would not
have come out at the end of the sea•on of so much ,
value, and would not have proved so remunerative to
the club am they wen. now likely to do.

soling as h.. wan one of the directors of the club he
would Aiwa). do what he could towards carrying out
the business affairs wri a right principle. if be had to
du shriller work for the club another year he should
