At the recent Annual General Meeting of the Associa- tion, held at Blackhall Place, Dublin, Mr. Eunan McCarron proposed the adoption of the Association's 120th Annual Report. Mr. McCarron expressed the Association's sorrow by reason of the death during the year of Eric A. Plunkett, who was both a Trustee and, ex-officio, a Director of the Association. Mr. Colm Price of Dublin had been elected a Metropolitan Director in his place. Mr. McCarron thanked the various Solicitors' Bar Associations and the Society of Young Solicitors for their subscriptions and took the opportunity of reminding those Bar Associations which have not subscribed that it is hoped they will do so in the current year. Referring to income, Mr. McCarron said that Donations and Legacies, at £10,128.00showed a pleasant increase and he mentioned in particular the success of the first "Soirée", held in 1982, which raised £2,744.00. The hardworking Committee, under the direction of Noelle Maguire and Claire Leonard, are arranging another Soirée to be held at the Law Society, Blackhall Place, on 22nd J une next. Mr. McCarron also referred to the loan of £20,000.00 to Abbeyfield (Dublin) Society Limited, which provides a special type of accommodation for elderly people, bridging the gap between living in a private house and an "Old Person's Home ". The Solicitors' Benevolent Society is now entitled to nominate two residents and two Directors. Miss Thelma King is a Committee member. Arrangements are being made for an elderly Solicitor to be moved into an Abbeyfield House on the Howth Road in the near future. The amount paid out in grants during the past year was £58,231.00 and the average payment made to those assisted was £1,200.00. Mr. McCarron thanked the outgoing President of the Law Society for his interest in the Association and thanked the Law Society and its staff for helping in collecting the subscriptions and for permitting the Association to hold its meetings at Blackhall Place. •
