Report of Section II. 



I have the honour to report that Section II has held four meetings 

 with the usual attendance of members. 



Several interesting papers were read and discussed; a list of which 

 is attached to this report. 



The address delivered by the President, Col. AYood, dealt with a sub- 

 ject of vital importance in the life of our country, namely, ''The Service 

 of Canada." 



Professor Bryce's paper, " Keminiscences of Military Experiences in 

 Canada Forty Years and More Ago," was also a valuable one and led to 

 a discussion, when Mr. Barlow Cumberland, President of the Ontario 

 Historical Society, added some facts of interest dealing with the Fenian 

 Eaid. 



The officers elected for the ensuing year are: President, Arch- 

 bishop Howley; Vice-President, J. H. Coyne, Esq., M.A. ; Secretary, Dr. 

 Vv'ilfred Campbell. 



A motion was passed by the members of the section present, as 

 follows : 



That Section II recommends that the Council appoint a finance 

 committee of its own members to take such steps as they may deem prac- 

 tical towards improving the financial position and resources of the 

 Society. 



It was resolved that this section elect four additional members and 

 that this resolution be reported to the Society pursuant to Eule 6 of the 

 Eegulations. 



The following members were appointed as the printing committee 

 for the year: Dr. W. D. LeSueur, Dr. Wilfred Campbell and Dr. A. G. 

 Doughty.
