CIV ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 
Monthly meetings were held during the winter and the following 
papers read:— 
Count de Puisaye, a forgotten page of history; Inscriptions and 
graves in the Niagara Peninsula, by the President; Reminiscences of 
Lienry Oakley and Mrs. Quade; Reminiscences of David and Andrew 
Kemp, by Mr. D. K. Goodfellow, Beauharnois, Quebec. 
A grant from the county and from the Ontario Government has 
enabled us to print as we have done. 
In a visit of your delegate to the Archives at Ottawa last year, it 
was found that several maps were in existence of military buildings in 
Niagara and two of them we have had copied and framed for our room. 
At the last meeting of the Ontario Historical Society, a resolution 
was passed offering us assistance with regard to the use made of the 
remains of Navy Hall as a stable, and by command of Col. McDonald 
this has been discontinued. 
At the late visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to our historic 
town, our publications were sent for their acceptance and an acknowledg- 
ment was received by our Society. 
Our principal and most pressing need is a larger and more accessible 
room, which shall be fireproof, and any advice of assistance in this 
direction will be gratefully received. 
We rejoice to know that so many historical societies are being 
formed, and that our country is at last becoming awake to the need of 
gathering and preserving historical information.
