20 C.C. NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY. 



The President of the Section hopes that it will be possible to arrange 

 more of these small excursions during 1899. 



A most interesting lecture was given to the Society by G. B. 

 Witts, Esq., on prehistoric man, and the life of those early inhabitants 

 of the Cotswolds was reconstructed with extraordinary ingenuity from 

 the illustrations afforded by local antiquities. Camps, roads and 

 burrows for miles around were made to yield their secrets and 

 disclose [the events of a very temote past. On the table were skulls 

 from Belas Knapp, and prehistoric stone implements, the sharpness 

 of which was really phenomenal. We must thank Mr. Witts for a 

 very kind offer of an excellent map of local antiquities for the 

 Museum, and also for the proposal to take some members of the 

 Society round Leckhampton Camp, an offer which was gratefully 

 accepted by some present for the next Sunday.
