He had injured his neck, apparently, when entangled in the 

 pond. 



Our obituary this past year is small, but includes one member 

 of our original Council, whose loss we all sincerely deplore. 

 Mr. Edward Greenhough was a hard worker and a most genial 

 companion : he was always intensely interested in all we were 

 doing, and on one occasion said to me, " This Society has done 

 so much for me, by its work and teaching, that I feel I can 

 never do enough for it in return." We could well do with a 

 large supply of that stamp of member added to our present 

 lists. 



Numerically we are slightly in excess of last year, but we have 

 still plenty of room ; let us each and all try to more than fill up 

 every vacancy, and we may be satisfied with the result of the 

 twenty-second year of our proceedings.
