upland eastern portion of our county, and in which, as 
you know well, the Inferior Oolite is exceedingly well 
developed. The detailed investigation of its strata and 
its organic remains has long occupied the attention of 
prominent geologists. Few are there, however, whose 
names are better known than that of W. H. Hudleston, 
F.R.S., the author of that monumental work entitled 
“A Monograph of the British Jurassic Gasteropoda, 
Part I, Gasteropoda of the Inferior Oolite,” published by 
the Palzontographical Society. 
Mrs Hutton, of Harescombe Grange, died after a very 
brief illness. Mrs Hutton was the Miss Holland of 
Dumbleton Hall whose collection of fossils from the Lias 
of that neighbourhood was examined by Dr T. Wright 
in 1863 and formed the subject of a short Paper in our 
Proceedings.‘ The Collection is still intact at Hares- 
combe Grange, where it is in the safe keeping of Miss 
H. M. Hutton, who takes a considerable interest in the 
collection of Polyzoa and Anthozoa from the Oolites. 
Our Hon. Secretary is examining this Dumbleton Col- 
lection and hopes to furnish a short paper next winter 
upon it. These examinations of collections made many 
years ago—and I speak more particularly from the 
botanist’s point of view—are of great value in linking up 
the past with the present, for in long-stowed-away col- 
lections the labels are left uninterfered with, and we can 
translate direct from them what names the earlier workers 
gave the various specimens. 
Mr H. Cecil Moore, of Hereford, long the energetic 
Secretary of the Woolhope Naturalists’ Field Club, and 
at the time of his death its President, passed away after a 
lengthy illness last summer. The connection between 
the Woolhope Club and our own has always been a close 
and mutually advantageous one. The two Clubs, years
