 Bones, obtained in a Tumulus at the singular 

 ancient British settlement on Danby Moor, when

 wished, the Council may congratulate its Members 

 and friends on its growing prosperity, and feel 

 warranted in expressing a hope, that its operations 

 may be more extensive and more beneficial, in 

 future seasons.
