Museum lecture theatre and the Committee room at the 

 service of the Local Committee, who arranged for their 

 occupation by the large and important section dealing with 

 Mathematics and Physics (Section A). Use was also made 

 of the lecture theatre for the general meetings of the 

 Association. 



It was further arranged that the specimens in connec- 

 tion with the Anthropological Section (Section H), should 

 be exhibited at the Museum. These comprised weapons and 

 implements from New Guinea, the West Coast of Africa, 

 etc. Many local antiquities and flint implements were also 

 lent for the occasion by Messrs. F. Ellis, Mervyn K. King, 

 Heber Mardon, and John E. Pritchard. A special 

 geological exhibit of great interest and value was also 

 prepared by Mr. J. W. D. Marshall in the eastern side-case 

 of the upper room of the Museum ; and an arrangement 

 was made by which the collections comprised in this 

 exhibit were to remain for six months. The following are 

 the several collections referred to : — 



I. Oolitic Brachiopoda, from Dundry. These specimens are selected from a 

 large collection brought together by the late Edward Wilson and J. W. 

 D. Marshall for purposes of study, and the preparation of a Monograph. 

 It includes specimens from the cabinets of Messrs. Wilson, Marshall, 

 Tutcher, Ellis, Smith, and Treasure. 



II. A collection of British Jurassic Brachiopoda, lent by Mr. Marshall. 



III. Wenlock fossils, from Whitfield, near Tortworth, collected and lent 

 by Mr. A. Vaughan, B.A., B.Sc. 



W. Jurassic fossils, collected and lent by Mr. J. W. Tutcher. 

 V. and VI. Two selections of fossils, from the collections of Mr. J. F. 

 Ellis, and Mr. W. J. Smith. 



Many of the most eminent members of the British 

 Association visited the Museum, and willingly gave 

 assistance in identifying specimens of which they pos- 

 sessed special knowledge. Much kindly help of this 

 character was given by Sir John Evans, Mr. Arthur J. 

 Evans, M.A., of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; Pro- 

 fessor Boyd Dawkins, of Owens College ; Dr. Allen Sturge,
