PROCEEDINGS FOR 1903 III 



In accordance with this resolution the volume has been got out 

 and is in your hands.

 of proceedings and 858 pages of Transactions in the four sections, or 

 1022 pages in all. There are 164 plates, maps and illustrations of 

 various kinds, so that it will compare favourably with the largest of any

 ciably to the cost of setting up in type, for such matter is more expen- 

 sive to set than plain matter. The accounts have been carefully 

 audited by experts and are given in the following financial statement: —
