ANNUAL REPORT. 
In presenting their Report for the past twelve months, 
your committee have to record three deaths and fourteen 
resignations, a total loss of seventeen. The number of 
-new members and subscribers elected during the year is 
twelve. This leaves the total membership at ninety-five 
as against one hundred last year. 
Since our last Report we have had to lament the loss by 
death of three very old and valued members of the Club, 
Mr. W. H. Tyndall, who died in January last, the Rev. H. 
Brass in August, and Dr. F. Bossey in September. Dr. 
Bossey was President of the Club in 1876 and Mr. Tyndall 
from 1880 to 1897 inclusive. Both were frequent contri- 
butors of papers or exhibitors of objects of interest, and 
were constant attenders of the excursions. Dr. Bossey’s 
interests were chiefly botanical and microscopical. Mr. 
Tyndall for many years furnished regular annual reports of 
meteorological observations. ‘To him the Club was also 
especially indebted for liberal assistance for various special 
purposes. The Rev. H. Brass on various occasions con- 
tributed geological papers, and also took frequent part in 
the outdoor meetings. 
Six evening meetings were held during the last session, 
at which there was an average attendance of thirty-one. 
The following lectures and papers were given :—
