Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Surrey Archaeological Collections, Vol. 24: Relating to the History and Antiquities of the County
The Council has also endeavoured to save, at least for some years longer, two interesting and ancient cottages near the Guildford Railway Station, as their demolition was involved in the. Scheme for widening Farnham Road, but regrets that its representations on this subject to the Surrey County Council should have proved unavailing.
Lieut.-col. W. Marsden, m.a., has resigned his seat on the Council. The vacancy has been filled by the due election of E. A. Chandler, Esq., of Witley.
The Council has to deplore the death of Colonel Walter Howard, who since the death of Mr. Edmond Foster in 1907 had rendered the Society much useful help as Honorary Local Secretary for Guildford and Honorary Secretary of the Museum and Library Committee.
The number of Members is 486, viz.: Annual, 404; Life, 80; Honorary, 2. During the year 26 new Members have been elected, viz.: Annual, 25; Honorary, 1. By death the Society has lost 11 Members, viz.: Annual, 10; Life, 1. By resignation; 10 Members. Total, 21. Gain over loss, 5.
On the motion of the Chairman, seconded by Mr. Pilcher, it was resolved: That the Report of Council for 1909 be received, adopted and entered on the Minutes.
