IT: From The Literary and Historical Society of Quebec, through 
Mr. P. B. CAsGRaIx. 
The 84th annual meeting of the Literary and Historical Society of 
Quebec was held on the 9th day of January, 1907, in the rooms of the 
society in Morrin College, and was one of the most largely attended 
ever held. 
The president, Mr. P. B. Casgrain, presided over the meeting, and 
interesting reports were presented from the council by Mr. A. Robertson, 
the recording secretary, and from the treasurer, Mr. James Geggie, 
while the librarian, Mr. W. C. Wurtele, gave a synopsis of the year’s 
work showing a larger issue of books than usual, the number in all 
taken out for the year being 3,941. 6 
The accumulation of new books on our shelves goes on satisfactorily, 
the library being thus supplied to a certain extent with the cream of 
the latest literature. This boon is largely due to the generosity of the 
Morrin College, Governors and of our honorary president, Doctor James 
Douglass, whose annual grants provide a special fund for this object.
