The debt incurred in building stables had been paid off, the receipts were about the average, and the number of new members was increasing every year, so that their position was entirely satisfactory. The expenses were rather heavier than in previous years, which was ac- counted for by the work on the inside course, and the fact that they were training earlier and later then in previous years, an excess of about two months, which required an additional cx penditure for coolies and ponies. The balance was about the same as last year,, but they were Tis, 1oco better off, as they had paid off the debt on the stables. He then proposed "That the accounts as rendered be passed."
