Signed April 23rd 1894 W. R. Clayton Chairman
Meeting of Directors held Thursday April 19th 1894
Present G. Mahon Esq. (in the chair) Messrs Coates, Baxter, Davies,
Leyland & Read.
Requisition Resolved we being of opinion that it would be prejudicial
for General to the interests of the Club to delay the engagement of Players
Meeting until after a General Meeting of the Shareholders could
be held & as there are at present 9 Directors to
approve of & carry out such engagements, (these Directors
having the power to fill any casual vacancy; which
power they will exercise if they deem it in the interests
of the Club so to do), fail to see a reasonable &
sufficient reason in the requisition warranting our
acceding to the wishes of the requisitionists.
Motion to rescind resolution of April 9th re the election of a Director
not Carried.
W. R. Clayton
