XXX REPORT. 
The All Saints’ wooden effigy has now been erected in the 
north aisle of All Saints’ Church, where it forms a striking and 
most valuable addition to the series of monuments, and should be 
visited by all who are interested in archzeology, and in the careful 
preservation in their proper place of important relics of the past. 
The result of the excavations at Repton, to which, it will be 
remembered our Society subscribed £20, have been of a most 
interesting character. The plan of the old Priory Church can 
now be laid down with accuracy, and, though we must regret that 
any of the bases of the old piers should be hidden beneath the 
new building, it is most satisfactory to think that pier bases 
which really show what the architecture of the church was, are 
preserved and can always be seen. 
During the past year your Vigilance Comittee has been con- 
sulted on various occasions by those who have been interested in 
church restoration or alteration, and we may hope that good has 
been effected ; but we would again impress upon each individual 
member of the Society the importance of constantly keeping a 
look out in their own neighbourhoods. 
A disused silver chalice and paten cover of Stuart date has, 
through the instrumentality of our Society, been carefully reno- 
vated, and has been restored, a perfect piece of plate, to the church 
to which it belonged. 
One of our members has presented to the Society an ancient 
Roman milestone, formerly standing in this county, but removed 
from its site. The milestone will be “lent” by our Society to the 
Derby Museum, so that it may be, in accordance with the condi- 
tion laid down by the donor, “ open to public inspection under 
proper safeguards.” 
It is expected that the Royal Archzeological Institute will, in 
accordance with our Society’s invitation, commence its congress 
in Derby either the last Tuesday in July, or the first Tuesday in 
August next. The congress lasts eight days, and expeditions and 
meetings of exceptional interest will be arranged. Members, one 
and all, are asked to do their utmost to make the congress a 
success. Steps are already taken to form working committees,
