It was proposed and seconded and carried that Messrs. Waters, Owen, Beamish, Ridley andHaslam be the five members of the Committee.PROPOSALS FOR INFORMAL PUBLIC MEETINGS. The Clerk read a private letter from Sir Laurence Chubbin which he said he feared that actions on the part of any body other than the Conservators might prove moreharmful than beneficial. Admiral Beamish in his notes upon the above letter, which were read in his absence, was ofthe opinion that if Meetings were held it should consist of, or at any rate represent, the various bodies interested in,dependent upon, or otherwise concerned in the preservation of the Forest. It was proposed that the Council for thePreservation of Rural England be approached with a view to their organising a Meeting quite independently of theConservators, but that in any event the matter be adjourned for further consideration in the Autumn followingconsideration by the Special Sub Committee dealing with the amendments of Byelaws.[signed] H.R.
