hoped the treasures would be received into a Museum or at least 
fall into suitable hands. Mr. F. Shum said he presumed these 
discoveries with the Roman antiquities and the collection at 
present in the Institution would find a home in the new Museum 
which it was proposed to provide in connection with the new 
buildings in the Abbey Churchyard. Mr. Winwood expressed 
the hope that they would be taken better care of than those at 
present in the Pump Room. He was reminded by the discussion 
which had followed his remarks that Mr. MecMurtrie some time 
ago intimated his willingness to read a Paper at some time or 
other before the members of the Field Club on Landslips in and 
around the neighbourhood of Bath. He hoped that before long 
they might have the pleasure of hearing a Paper from Mr. 
McMurttrie on the subject, which was an exceptionally interesting 
one. On the motion of the Chairman, Mr. Winwood was very 
heartily thanked for his contributions and the proceedings 
terminated.

Lawrence’s Chapel,” Rev. Canon Ellacombe in the chair. In the 
course of some interesting observations Mr. Shickle remarked 
that the camp on Stoke’s Down had been called Oliver’s Camp 
from akind of tradition that Oliver Cromwell's army were there 
the night before the battle, but Cromwell must have been almost

been to the right of the Gloucester Road and Collier’s Lane, 
marching above Woolley or through the village itself as their 
enemies moved up the valley, and to camp on Stoke’s Down 
would entail a long march on his tired men, and leave not only 
the Gloucester Road exposed but the road which then led from 
Cold Ashton to Bath completely opened to Hopton. How 
Waller reached Lansdown from Claverton was the most interest- 
ing question. The Old Bridge appeared too great a detour. Did
