BOMBAY GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.
CXI
Dr. Birdwood, in proposing Mr. C. R. Markham as an Honorary
Member of the Society, said he did so on the ground of his being a scien
tific traveller, who had published works on his travels of acknowledged
value ; he had also introduced the quinine-bearing cinchonas into
India, and was Honorary Secretary to the Hakluyt and Royal Geogra
phical Societies. He could assure the meeting that Mr. Markham
would highly appreciate the honour of being elected Honorary Member
of this Society.
Mr. Markham was then ballotted for and declared unanimously
elected as an Honorary Member of the Society.
Dr. Sinclair, in proposing the Reverend Humphrey Lloyd, D.D.,
D.C.L., &e. as an Honorary Member of the Society, .said that he
considered Dr. Lloyd’s eminent services to physical science, and more
especially his labours in advancing the theory of magnetism, and in
improving the methods of Magnetical and Meteorological Observations
—branches of science connected, not remotely, with the objects of the
Geographical Society—were worthy of the Society’s best recognition.
As to whether the offer of the Honorary Membership of the Society
would be acceptable to Dr. Lloyd, Professor Sinclair stated that he was
sure, from the interest Dr. Lloyd took in the objects of the Society
that he would feel much gratified by this distinguished mark of the
Society’s appreciation of his services to science.
The Rev. Dr. Lloyd was then ballotted for and declared unanimously
elected to an Honorary Membership of the Society, after which the
Meeting adjourned to Thursday, March 17th, 1864.
