Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transactions, Vol. 16: 1866-7
IN drawing up and presenting to the members of the Institute their Report for the year just coming to a close, the Council have little else to do than to repeat the observations of the preceding year.
They have, as on that occasion, to report a large increase of members, and a generally prosperous and encouraging position of the Institution, with the difference, however, that this increase cannot exactly be attributed to the same causes. Much of it must be attributed to the junction of many and important members of the profession of Mechanical Engineers, which, whilst it adds to the numbers at the same time is largely augmenting the utility and importance of the Institution.
