Eyre, and seconded by G. W. Bulman, "That a club be formed of former members of St . Peter 's School and be called 'The Old Peterite Club .'" The meeting then proceeded to the election of a President, and Rev. H . M . Stephenson was unanimously elected . As the meeting was a small one and could not be considered a representative meeting of Old Peterites the election of other officers and the passing of rules were left over until it should be possible to call a really representative meeting ; meanwhile, a Provisional Committee, consisting of Messrs.

After some slight discussion on various suggestions concerning the management of the Club a hearty vote of thanks was passed to the Headmaster for his kindness in presiding, and there being no further business the meeting then dissolved.
