On 6 May 1857 (PM3, xxxii) "The Honorary Secretary intimated that the "Transactions" of the Institute, for 1856, were printed, and that he only waited for final instructions from the Council to publish the same, in order that copies might be distributed to the members." On 8 May 1857 (CM2) the secretary submitted to Council "a proof copy of the "Transactions" and . . . [obtained] . . . final Instructions for Publication." On 3 June 1857 (PM3, xxxv) the secretary ". . . intimated that the "Transactions" of the Institute for 1856 had been published, and that copies were upon the table for distribution to . . . members . . .". Although these quotations refer to transactions "for 1856" the publication concerned also included transactions from August to December 1855. (See item D.)
