On November 15, 1904, the Clark County Historical Society, in its

meeting and elected the following officers for the ensuing year:

President - Prof. B. F. Prince.

Secretary-William M. Harris.

Treasurer - Charles H. Pierce.

Trustees -Oscar T. Martin, for five years; L. H. Fahnestock, for

six years.

All of the officers elected succeeded themselves except Mr. Fahne-

stock, who succeeded Prof. A. H. Linn. The Board of Trustees, as at

present constituted, consists of seven members. An amendment to the

by-laws was proposed, increasing the number of trustees to nine. The

meeting was well attended and great interest was manifested in the

progress of the Society. Professor Prince, who was honored with the

presidency, is a trustee of the Ohio State Archaeological and Historical

Society.
