Text	The called issued for the annual meeting of the Athletic Club was attended with a hearty response, several hundred persons having assembled at the room selected for the purpose. This selection was apparently made on the spur of the moment, the managers probably being unable to find a room entirely suited to the purpose. The subsequent arrangements were also poor, as every open who wished entered without discrimination, and it was finally found necessary to clear the apartment, and admit only those whose names were on the membership rolls, and who held their certificates. ... The vote was then taken, the voters passing in line to an ante-room, there depositing their ballots, and passing thence into the hall. The last vote deposited, they were re-admitted, and the process repated until all the offices had been voted for.
