A committee will be on duty at the hotel all day to receive members and guests, especially those coming from other cities and states, and render them such assistance as may be desired. A general reception will take place in the evening from 5 to 6 o’clock, upon the conclusion of which the annual meeting of the Society will be held. The annual dinner will be at 7.30 p. m. This will be the tenth anniversary of the Society, and it is eminently appropriate that its celebration should take place in Boston, the city where the organization was founded. These annual gatherings of the Society are always of very great interest, bring together a distinguished company, and are long remembered by those participating. The forthcoming event will be no exception to the rule. Tickets to the dinner are now ready at $3.50 each. They can be obtained by addressing Mr. M. J. Jordan, 42 Court Street, Boston, Mass. Make checks payable to the American-Irish Historical Society and forward to Mr. Jordan at the address given. Members are at liberty to invite personal guests. The evening reception committee will include the following Boston members of the Society: Capt. D. J. Gorman, Bernard J. Joyce, Michael H. Cox, Patrick M. Keating, J. W. Fogarty, P. A. O’Connell, Charles V. Dasey, T. B. Fitzpatrick, P. H. Powers, John E. Gilman, Hon. Joseph H. O’Neil, W. B. Sullivan, F. L. Dunne, P. B. Magrane and James W. Kenney. We hope that all who possibly can will be with us on this occasion, as it is desired to make it a red-letter event in the history of the Society. Fraternally, JOHN MCGOWAN, _President-General_, Washington, D. C. T. H. MURRAY, _Secretary-General_, 48 Carlton Road, Seaview, Mass. January 1, 1907. The event was a very successful one and was participated in by a large gathering. Owing to the unavoidable absence of Admiral McGowan, the president-general of the Society, the business session was presided over by Mr. M. F. Dooley of Providence, R. I., treasurer-general of the organization. Mr. T. H. Murray, secretary-general of the Society, was present, but owing to illness was assisted in his duties by Mr. P. F. Magrath of Binghamton, N. Y. The reading of the minutes of the preceding annual meeting was omitted. The annual report of the secretary-general was presented, accepted and adopted, as was that of the treasurer-general. Both reports showed the Society to be in an excellent condition. Several new members were admitted to the organization. The annual election of officers then took place, the result being as given on pages 5 and 6 of this volume. The business session was then dissolved, and after an interval the company proceeded to the annual dinner.
