Internally tight, on lightly-aged paper with slight damp staining at foot. Binding worn and with damp damage to back board. Titled 'Society of Chemical Industry | Chemical Industry Club', and with manuscript note on flyleaf by 'G.

The minutes are signed by the committee members present, many of whom are figures in high standing in the British chemical industry.

Over the next few meetings rules, financial arrangements and other matters are settled, and on 24 July 1917 it is decided that there should be a 'Club evening with no fixed Programme, but to arrange for certain Members to open & carry on a Debate on the subject of the reasons for the lack of cohesion amongst Chemists & Chemical Manufacturers in this Country under the title of "What is the matter with us?"'
