Proceedings of the Clifton Antiquarian Club, 1884-5. FIRST MEETING. ON January 23rd, 1884, a meeting took place at the Bristol Museum and Library, which was attended by the following gentlemen: The Hon. and Right Rev. Bishop Clifford, Rev. B. H. Blacker, Lieut.-Col. J. R. Bramble, Dr. G. F. Burder, Dr. A. Steven, Messrs. J. Bush, J. Dallas, F. J. Fry, W. V. Gough, H. M. Herapath, Alfred E. Hudd, W. P. Hudden, Christopher James, W. E. Jones, T. Kerslake, Harold Lewis, A. T. Martin, T. S. Pope, P. D. Prankerd, S. H. Swayne, John Taylor, William Thomas, and John Williams. Bishop Clifford having been requested to take the chair, called upon Mr. A. E. Hudd to read a circular letter which had been printed and circulated amongst archæologists residing in Clifton and the neighbourhood. In this letter, which was signed by Bishop Clifford, Col. Bramble, Messrs. J. Bush, A. E. Hudd, T. Kerslake, A. C. Pass, J. Taylor, and J. Williams, it was proposed to form a small Society, having its head-quarters in Clifton, and consisting of a limited number of members, which, without interfering with other societies in the West of England having somewhat similar objects, might arrange meetings and excursions for the study and investigation of objects of archæological interest in the West of England and South Wales. This circular having been read, letters approving of the objects of the proposed Club, and expressing regret at being unable to attend the meeting were read from the Rev. C. S. Taylor, Lieut.-Col. Macliver, Dr. Langley, Professor John Rowley, Alderman F. F. Fox, and Messrs. W. Adlam, F.S.A., W. Edkins, J. Reynolds, C. J. Trusted, and A. C. Pass. On the motion of the chairman it was then unanimously resolved by those present at the meeting "That a society to be called 'The Clifton Antiquarian Club' be hereby formed, to consist of forty members." The first forty members of the Club having been elected by the meeting, the following rules, which had been prepared by a provisional committee, were read and adopted : 1.-The Society shall be called the "CLIFTON ANTIQUARIAN CLUB." 2. The chief object of the Club shall be the investigation of antiquities, especially of those in the surrounding country. 3. The Club shall consist of not more than forty Ordinary and ten Honorary Members. 4.-The Officers of the Club shall be-a President, two VicePresidents, a Treasurer, and a Secretary, all of whom shall be elected annually from amongst the Ordinary Members. 5. The affairs of the Club shall be managed by a Committee, consisting of the Officers and four Members to be elected annually; three to form a quorum. 6.-Ordinary Members shall be elected at the Annual Meeting, by ballot. Candidates must be previously nominated in writing by two Members, and approved by the Committee: the names of all candidates must be sent to every Member at least seven days before the Annual Meeting. One adverse vote in ten shall be sufficient to exclude. 7.-Honorary Members shall be elected by the unanimous vote of the Committee. 8. The Committee shall have the power of inviting not more than five gentlemen to attend any meeting of the Club. 9.-There shall each year be two excursions, and two meetings for general purposes, one of which-to be held in January-shall be the Annual Meeting for the election of new Members and the appointment of Officers. At least seven days' notice of all meetings shall be given to every Member by the Secretary. The 10.-Special Meetings may be called by the Committee. Secretary shall call a Special Meeting within ten days of receiving a written request to that effect, specifying the object of the meeting, and signed by not less than ten members. 11. Each Member shall give three days' notice to the Secretary of his intention to join the excursion meetings, and he shall be at liberty to introduce a lady, subject to the same rule as regards the notice. The expenses of each excursion shall be defrayed by those who attend it, or who have signified their intention to do so to the Secretary. 12.-Each Ordinary Member shall pay an Annual Subscription of Seven Shillings and Sixpence, which shall become due on the first day of January in each year, and shall be paid in advance. 13.-Members whose subscriptions are in arrear for one year shall be considered as having withdrawn from the Club, if after application the same be not paid. 14.-Any Member being absent from four consecutive meetings, without explaining the cause of his absence to the satisfaction of the Committee, shall be considered to have retired from the Club. 15.-All matters not included in the foregoing Rules shall be settled by a majority of two-thirds of the Committee, provided that any Member may appeal from their decision to a General Meeting of the Club, at which the votes shall be taken by ballot. The Meeting then proceeded to elect the Officers and Committee for the year 1884, the following being the result: President: The Hon. and Right Rev. BISHOP CLIFFORD. Secretary: ALFRED E. HUDD. Committee: G. F. BURDER, M.D., FRANCIS J. FRY, W. E. JONES, ALFRED C. PASS. Hon. Members: General JOHN DE HAVILLAND, F.S.A., York Herald; JOHN BEDDOE, M.D., F.R.S. (Elected Hon. Members of the Club at the first meeting of the Committee.) The President then called upon Mr. John Taylor, to read a paper he had prepared for the meeting upon "Anglo-Norman Church Doorways," which is here printed. A discussion followed upon the interesting subject of the lecture, and will be found printed in a later portion of this volume, |
