VIII. — Report of Niagara Hi-storiad Society, 1913. 

 By Miss Janet Carxochax, President and Delegate. 



Since our last report to your Society we are able to i-cport consider- 

 able progress. And now that we are in the eighteenth }'ear of our ex- 

 istence as a Society and think of our small beginnings we feel grateful 

 that we have met with such unexpected success, a success not dreamed 

 of by the most sanguine optimist when we began our work. 



During the winter months we held our usual monthly meetings and 

 the following papers were read: 



"Emigrants in Niagara in 1847 suffering with ship fever," compiled 

 from documents of the Board of Health of that day by Miss Carnochan; 

 "Diary of Mr. Henry Woodington while a pi'isoner in Fort Garry, 1869- 

 1870."; "Documents relating to Francis (ioring, 177G-1842 obtained 

 partly from the Archives and partly from other sources" ; "Extracts from 

 the Antiquarian and Numismatic Journal relating to a visitor to Niagara 

 in 1793 whose name is miknown and to whom he addressed the letters 

 also unknown."
