Yarrall (secretary), and Mrs Yarrall, and a hearty vote of thanks was accorded them.' Pleasure and congratulations were expressed to Mr. Fitzgerald, who obtained such success with his blooms at Hokitika and Greymouth. Mr. Fitzgerald thanked the members for their kind reference, and said he tended to continue the study and growth of chrysanthemums. It was decided to forward a letter of thanks to Messrs.
