The Committee have pleasure in submitting the Forty-fourth 

 Annual Report of the Society. There is again an increase in the 

 Membership, the total now being 249 ; but by a limitation of the 

 tickets issued for the use of ladies and youths, the number of which 

 was 266, the total number of lecture tickets issued is less than last 

 year, without any decrease in the income of the Society. 



Throughout the session the attendance at all the lectures was 

 good. 



The Committee regret tliat the lecture programme, as originally 

 arranged, had to be departed from.
