SARA. VADDISTA,

Providing at the eleventh ordinary gonera meeting of Borrii, Limited, the Earl of Arran, in moving the adoption of the report and spcounts for the year ending December 31st,

1907 mid

It is with mach regret on both sides that the Earl of Bessborough has been obliged to sever his ocnnection with the Company's Board after eleven years of plassant and successful working. Lord Beanborough has recently been appointed Chairman of the London, Brighton, and South Const Railway, and he will have to devote ook. siderable additional time and parmonal attention to his new duties. 'I would just like to read a letter I have received from Lord Bassborough:

MY MAR ARRAN,

May I ask you to be good enough to convey to the Shareholders my deep regret that ciroom

stances of Increased work in another direction necessitated my relinquishing the Chairmanship of the Bovril-Company, which I have had the -honour of occupying for so many years; also to express my gratitude to them for their kindly consideration and indulgence which they have always extended to me.

to tast diet would be a little of our nut brown Bowl (lagator) and as for the vegetarians, I would suggest to them that they could met possibly find better satios for their salad than Bovril. I think I cannot give you any more telling you that your directors, when exhausten convincing proof of the value of Bovril than by by their labours, refresh themselves with a cap of Bovril. There are many imitations. Imitation is the ainosest form of flattery. Bovril is not without that tribute to ite genius, but I think an a grast actor can afford to smile at the humble mountebank, Bovril can view with complacency the motley group that follow in its train.

Mr. George Lawson Jobuston in secerding the resolution, remarked the Australia had beari for nearly twenty years the favourite source for the supply of their raw material, and it was probably the last place from which they exposid to have duties raised against them.Ha, the speaker, hoped that this would help towards a preferential duty on Borril.

Bir James Crichton-Browne, in moving the resolution for the re-election of Mr. W. Lawson Johnston as director of the Company, said

Although new to the directorate of Bovril, Ltd., I am an old friend, for I have long recognised its nutritive and restorative powers, and during the short time I have been on the Board I have found a warm friend to Bovril in Mr. Willing Lawson Johnston.
