This meeting was made memorable by the retirement of the Rev. O. Luard

from the office of Hon. Secretary of the Grand National Archery Society,

after having acted as Secretary at thirty-six meetings--in fact, at

every meeting hitherto, except the first in 1844. He was presented with

a complimentary scroll, setting out the universal appreciation of his

services, and with a purse containing 200 guineas. Mr. Palairet was

elected to succeed Mr. Luard as Hon. Secretary.
