The earlier publications of the Institute were as follows: 
1. (1895) Historical Sketches of the County of Elgin, containing 
papers on “The Country of the Neutrals” by James H. 
Coyne. “The Talbot Settlement” by Judge C. O. Ermatinger 
and “The Development of the County of Elgin” by K. W. 
McKay. 
2. (1901) The Court Houses of a Century (1800-1900) by Kenneth 
W. McKay with Introduction by James H. Coyne.

edited by Judge C. O. Ermatinger. 
The annual outing in the summer of 1911 was largely attended 
and greatly enjoyed. The party proceeded by steamer from Port 
Stanley to Erieau at the entrance to the Rondeau, where a few hours 
were spent. Addresses on the historical associations connected with 
the portion of Lake Erie traversed on the excursion were delivered by 
the President, and Mr. Frank Hunt, Police Magistrate for the County 
of Elgin. ; 
A gratifying incident worthy of mention in this Report was the 
generous offer by Mr. John F. Langan, F.R.G.S., of Vancouver, formerly 
of St. Thomas, of a contribution of one thousand dollars towards the 
purchase of permanent quarters for the Institute. The Council ven- 
tures to express the hope that Mr. Langan’s liberality may lead to other 
publie spirited individuals interesting themselves in the task of securing 
a suitable home for the Institute’s Museum and Library. 
The attendance at meetings has been satisfactory. Three new 
members have been added to the Institute. The Women’s Auxiliary 
has also had a successful year, as shown by its report presented herewith. 
After payment of all expenses there is a sum of $101.39 in the 
Institute’s treasury. This is over and above the $409.62 held by the 
Women’s Auxiliary. 
The officers for 1912-1913 are as follow: 
President.—James H. Coyne, LL.D., F.R.S.C. 
Vice-President.—Mrs. J. H. Wilson. 
Secretary.—H. 8. Wegg.
