Rules of the Dublin Biological Club

Small 8-page pamphlet detailing the rules of the Dublin Biological Club, founded in 1872.

Membership of the club was by election, and a subscription was to be paid by all members, who could present papers, specimens and cases on 'the morbid and health conditions of animal and vegetable life'. Members were also allowed to bring visitors to the meeting, who could also on occasion present papers. The club originally met in rooms in Trinity College Dublin, before hiring a room on Great Brunswick Street (1874-1881) and finally moving to the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland. 

This is a second-hand pamphlet in very good condition.
