The minutes of the previous meeting were confirmed, the reading

The President welcomed the members present, and expressed the re- 

 gret they felt at the absence of some of those who in past years had at- 

 tended the meetings, but were this year unavoidably absent, referring 

 especially to Rev. C. J. S. Bethune, of Port Hope, and Mr. G. J. Bowles, 

 of Montreal. 



The Secretary presented the Report of the Council, embodying many 

 of the results of the work of the Society for the past year, which will be 

 published in the Annual Report. 



The financial report of the Secretary-Treasurer was next read, showing 

 a satisfactory condition of the funds. A report of the Librarian was also 

 submitted, in which the additions to the library were enumerated, and a 

 list given of the periodicals received in exchange for the Canadian Ento- 

 mologist. 



The report of the Montreal Branch of the Society was then presented, 

 in which the work done by that energetic organization was referred to, 

 presenting a gratifying exhibit highly creditable to the members comprising 

 that branch.
