proceedings by congratulating the members upon their change of premises , from their contracted and dirty building in Cannon-row , to the gallery in which their collection was now placed ; His lordship concluded calling upon Mr , Scott to read the annual report . Mr . Scott , the treasurer , read the report , which commenced by stating that its general character was general and financial . The report announced the additions which had been made to the collection , and entered
somewhat fully into the reasons for its removal to South Kensington . Any misgiving which might have been felt as to the prudence of the removal from Cannon-row had been entirely set at rest by the increase of visitors , which was twenty-fold . Professor Donaldson moved the adoption of the report . He dwelt upon the great advantages likely to result from the association of the Architectural Museum with the other departments in the building , whilst independent action and power of control were . secured to the committee . The professor concluded by presenting
to the library , on the part of Mr . H . G . Bonn , that gentleman s new publication upon "Pottery and Porcelain . " Mr . Powell seconded the resolution , which was carried unanimously . Mr . Scott moved a vote of thanks to the Committee of Council on Education for their generous co-operation , and also for much personal attention and assistance from Mr . Cole , Mr . Bedgrave ; Dr . Lyon Playfair , Captain Powke , and Mr . Owen . This motion was seconded by Mr . Godwin , and unanimously adopted by the meeting .
Mr . Cole moved that the best thanks of the members of the Architectural Museum be given to the officers of the society . This motion , having been seconded by Mr . S . C . Hall , was unanimously carried . The business was concluded by the unanimous adoption of a vote of thanks to Earl De Grey for his conduct in the chair . By permission of the Committee of Council , the whole of the building was opened to the inspection of visitors .
