2 2 3 The resolution was then put by Vice-President Riker and was unanimously carried by a rising vote. MR. HoES: I see by the notice of this meeting that the libre-YY is HOW, or is to be, located in Nassau Street, I may be misinformed in regard to the proceedings of the Society, but I would likg to inquire about that a littleg possibly other members here don 't know that we have a valuable library, and the whereabouts of it, except by having seen the memorandum on the printed notice. ' THE PRESIDENT: The office of the Society has hitherto been at 348 Broadway, in order that it might be near at hand to the former Secretary. We have now elected Mr. Henry L. Bogert, whose office is at No. QQ Nassau Street. His oflice' will be the office of the Society, and the library will be removed after the first of May to No. 99 Nassau Street, in the Bennett Building. Perhaps I may be permitted to add one word--I wish I could more iittingly tell you how much I appreciate the kind Words which have been -spoken by Mr. Hasbrouck in the resolution which he has presented, and by Mr. Van Norden. My work in the Holland Society has been a labor of love. From the very beginning I have taken the very greatest interest in it, and there was nothing I could do that I was not delighted to do for the Society. It has done more for me, I may say, than I have done for it in the joy that has come to my own heart in seeing the Society grow, and in seeing Certain work which it has done accomplished, and I want to say to you that,-from the bottom of my heart, I appreciate these kindly words which YOU

222 and has for the past year continued its successful career under his administration as President, now, therefore, be it Resolved, That The Holland Society of New York desires to express its appreciation of the services which, first as Secretary and later as President, have been rendered in such a conspicuously able and satisfactory manner by Mr, Banta, and the gratification which the Society's continued progress and prosperity have inspired among the members, and further Resolved, That the Secretary enter this resolution upon the records and forward a suitably engrossed copy to the retiring official. -5 MR. WARNER VAN NORDEN: In seconding this motion, I feel that I ought to say more than a single word. It is usual in organizations ,of this character, and it has also been so with us, to offer a resolution of this kind to the retiring Presi- dent, and it is perfectly proper and courteous to do so, but it is something more than a per- functory expression in this case. I think we will all agree that there has been no man in office in theHolland Society that has so faithfully served it as has Mr. Banta. Cflpplausej No one could possibly have given the time that he has to the affairs of the Society, or, if he had the time he might not have had the order of talent which has enabled him to serve the Society so successfully, and, even if we had the time and the order of talent, very few of us have the tact which would enable us to go through a career of many years as Secretary and finally President and yet be the most popular man in the Society., Cflpplausejy It is, therefore, with very great pleasure that I second this motion, and I am sure that every word I have said finds a ready echo in the heart of all present.
