Excerpt from Transactions of the Odontological Society of Great Britain, 1883, Vol. 15 ON taking his seat, the President addressed a few words of welcome to the members assembled, and congratulated them on the appearance of improved health which most of them presented as the result of their recent vacations. Since the last meeting of the Society in June, some events had occurred which he felt ought not to be allowed to pass without some official notice from himself. In the first place, there was the Annual General Meeting of the British Dental Association at Liverpool. He was sure that all who had been present would agree with him that it was a most interesting meeting, and highly successful, both from a scientific and social point of view. He might further call attention to the fact that the success of that meeting was largely due to the interest taken in it by the members of the Odontological Society, for of those present at Liverpool, nearly half were members of that body, including no less than Six past presi dents, and nearly all its present executive Officers.
