COUNCIL.

RULES AND REGULATIONS.

1. The Society shall be administered on the mutual principle, and solely in
the interest of American history.

2. A volume shall be issued as often as practicable, but not more
frequently than once a year.

3. An editor of each work to be issued shall be appointed, who shall be a
member of the Society, whose duty it shall be to prepare, arrange, and
conduct the same through the press; and, as he will necessarily be placed
under obligations to scholars and others for assistance, and particularly
for the loan of rare books, he shall be entitled to receive ten copies, to
enable him to acknowledge and return any courtesies which he may have
received.

4. All editorial work and official service shall be performed gratuitously.

5. All contracts connected with the publication of any work shall be laid
before the Council in distinct specifications in writing, and be adopted by
a vote of the Council, and entered in a book kept for that purpose; and,
when the publication of a volume is completed, its whole expense shall be
entered, with the items of its cost in full, in the same book. No member of
the Council shall be a contractor for doing any part of the mechanical work
of the publications.

6. The price of each volume shall be a hundredth part of the cost of the
edition, or as near to that as conveniently may be; and there shall be no
other assessments levied upon the members of the Society.

7. A sum, not exceeding one thousand dollars, may be set apart by the
Council from the net receipts for publications, as a working capital; and
when the said net receipts shall exceed that sum, the excess shall be
divided, from time to time, among the members of the Society, by remitting
either a part or the whole cost of a volume, as may be deemed expedient.

8. All moneys belonging to the Society shall be deposited in the New
England Trust Company in Boston, unless some other banking institution
shall be designated by a vote of the Council; and said moneys shall be
entered in the name of the Society, subject to the order of the Treasurer.

9. It shall be the duty of the President to call the Council together,
whenever it may be necessary for the transaction of business, and to
preside at its meetings.

10. It shall be the duty of the Vice-Presidents to authorize all bills
before their payment, to make an inventory of the property of the Society
during the month preceding the annual meeting and to report the same to the
Council, and to audit the accounts of the Treasurer.

11. It shall be the duty of the Corresponding Secretary to issue all
general notices to the members, and to conduct the general correspondence
of the Society.

12. It shall be the duty of the Recording Secretary to keep a complete
record of the proceedings both of the Society and of the Council, in a book
provided for that purpose.

13. It shall be the duty of the Treasurer to forward to the members bills
for the volumes, as they are issued; to superintend the sending of the
books; to pay all bills authorized and indorsed by at leaft two
Vice-Presidents of the Society; and to keep an accurate account of all
moneys received and disbursed.

14. No books shall be forwarded by the Treasurer to any member until the
amount of the price fixed for the same shall have been received; and any
member neglecting to forward the said amount for one month after his
notification, shall forfeit his membership.
