Anniversary General Meeting of the Royal Asiatic Society, Thursday 12 May 2005
View through CrossRef
AbstractI begin by thanking the Honorary Treasurer for his report for 2004. You will note that, sadly, this will be his last report to the Society's anniversary general meeting. During the coming year Kit Naylor will step down as Honorary Treasurer. He would like to do so now, but has very kindly agreed to see the Society through its move. This has the added benefit of permitting his intended successor, Brampton Mundy, to shadow him. Kit, the Society is hugely in your debt for the time, the judgement and the goodwill you have, over the past eight years, brought to its affairs. This meeting should know that Council has commissioned a portrait drawing of Kit with the Society's bust of Henry Thomas Colebrooke in the background. Colebrooke, you will recall, was the Society's first Director and is Kit's ancestor, to whom he bears an uncanny likeness. This is a personal acknowledgement by members of Council of Kit's contribution. The portrait will be on display upstairs.
