BOVRIL, LIMITED
Before proceeding with the business of the list, annual general meeting of Bovril Ltd., held in London on February 28, 1938, the Lord Luk®. K.8.E., the chairman, said he would like to speak of the loss the company, and indeed the country, had sustained in the death of Sir James Crichton* Browne. It would be impossible to exaggerate the value of his services to the company, or ihc admiration his qualities of mind and character had inspired in his fellow directors. At the age of 97 Sir James showed very little diminution of his mental pow« ers. The last thing he did, handicapped as he was by illness, was to prepare the address he proposed to deliver to the shareholders. This it would be his (Lord Luke’s) privilege to read to the meeting.
The chairman then went on to review the accounts of a very satisfactory year, during which sales had gone up considerably, both at home and abroad*
