Whitby, has promised to paint for the Society a 

 portrait of Dr. Young, as a companion to that of 

 the late INIr. Bird, for many years his associate 

 and fellow labourer in his geological pursuits. 

 It will be one of the duties of the present meeting 

 to elect a Secretary, as successor to the late 

 Dr. Young. 



The Council have great pleasure in noticing 

 the continued gratuitous services of Mr. M. 

 Simpson in arranging and marking the contents 

 of different departments of the Museum, a work 

 of great labour. It is fortunate for the Society, 

 under present circumstances, that in addition to 

 the possession of talents, and time, and taste for 

 the task, Mr. Simpson has also the disposition to 

 exert them in the cause of science, for it is 

 purely on his part, "a labour of Love."
