enable the Society to resume the publication. , 
Otherwise, the Society is in a flourishing condition. It continues 
to receive most valuable assistance and encouragement, in prosocuting 
its work, from the scientific staff of MeGill University. Their presence 
at the Society’s meetings and on its lecture platform affords a wonderful 
stimulus to the amateur scientific workers of the Society. The Society 
also highly appreciated the privilege extended by the University 
authorities in permitting two of the Somerville lectures to be held in the 
Physics building.
