Several excursions have taken place, but they were not so 
well attended as expected. 
Some progress has been made with the County survey, a 
notice being issued requesting members to send in lists of

negatives of many subjects of interest during the session.

much remains to be done even in our town of Brighton, and still 
more throughout the county.
