Brumley took an opportunity of calling some of the committee together for a purpose of presenting the honorary secretary Mr T Stirling with a handsome gold repeater chronometer watch which had been purchased out of a vote of £25 passed at the annual meeting to obtain some memento of the services Mr Stirling had rendered to the society as honorary secretary.
