As the result of the admissions of the two bodies heretofore described, the membership of the Exchange rose to a total of 1,060, at which figure it stood until December, 1879, on which date, in order to raise funds for the construction of a new building, there were sold at auction forty additional memberships, which brought an average of about $15,000 each. Of these seats so purchased there now remain 9.
This brought the total membership to 1,100, at which figure it has ever since remained. It appears, therefore, that of members who joined the Exchange prior to the 1st of January, 1870, there at present remain 85, as follows:
| Members of the original “New York Stock Exchange” now remaining | 31 |
| Members of the “Government Bond Department” who joined May 3, 1869 | 15 |
| One member who joined the Exchange May 6, 1869 | 1 |
| Members of the “Open Board of Brokers” who were admitted May 8, 1869 | 26 |
| Present members who joined between May 9, 1869 and Jan. 1, 1870 | 7 |
