Tribute t o Pr es i dent

The Chair was taken by the Senior

Vice-President, Mr. Maurice Curran,

who called on Mr. Desmond Moran

to propose a vote of thanks to the

President. Mr. Moran said that as

the senior member present, it gave

him great pleasure to pay tribute to

the President of the Society, Tom

Shaw. Over the past t wo years he

had crossed swords w i th him on a

few occasions and had to admit

that he learned a lot. The President

had undertaken a tough job, not

only in visiting Bar Associations

throughout the country but also in

representing the Society at meetings

abroad. He represented the country

well and he wished to thank the

President for all that he had done on

behalf of the members of the Society.

Mr. Mo r a n 's r ema r ks we re

received w i th applause.

After being seconded by Mr.

George Crawford, who described

Mr. Shaw as

"a

terrific President

who had been most helpful to the

ordinary member", the motion was

carried unanimously and Mr. Shaw

was given a standing ovation.

The Senior Vice-President then for-

mally declared the meeting closed. •
