Y., October 15th, 1878 It gives me great pleasure to receive you as members of our fraternity, and without more words I am very happy to intro duce you to the members of the Association. (applause). The president - The next thing in order, according to the programme, is the address of the President. Those of you who were present at the opening of the meeting, heard my remarks to the effect that General Roome was prevented from being present by illness, and that a telegram was received last night from Mr. Price, stating that he would be prevented from being here, and hence the duty devolved upon me to preside. I have prepared no address, as I had no time to do so, and it would be impossible for me to do so if I had had time. My sleep was very much broken last night, for causes which would have been apparent to any one present. (cheers and laughter.) I am sorry Mr. Price is not present, as he had prepared an address.
