Sir Alexander Roberts, who said he himself had dictated the lettors, and no discourtesy was intended. Sir Alexander also denied the suggestion made by Mr. Haggitt that there had been a predetermined resolution of the council to hold the tournament at Shirley. At the end of the meeting all tho present members of the council were re-elected, no other nominations having been received, and it was left to tho council to decide where the championships should be held next season. .The association adopted tho suggestion of the council to inaugurate am inter-island match.
