manor or parish, have been acquired by the Society of Antiquaries, 
and are deposited at their rooms in Burlington House. If the 
Society of Antiquaries undertakes to catalogue the collection it is 
hoped we may be favoured with a copy of it for our Library, No 
doubt the papers are in safe custody, but the Committee feels that 
they are not very accessible to Wiltshiremen. During the past 
year the attention of the Committee has been drawn to the fact 
that a series of very careful and accurate drawings and plans of

‘During the spring our President carried on some further work 
of excavation at Wansdyke, the results of which he has undertaken 
to communicate to this Meeting.

their efforts to maintain the Society, to keep up and increase its 
numbers by sending in the names of their friends and neighbours 
as new members, and by keeping a watchful eye upon everything 
bearing upon the history, in all its branches and departments, of 
this interesting county.” 
Mr. Penruppocke, in moving the adoption of the report, con- 
gratulated the Society on being in such a flourishing condition, and 
said that if every Member of it would exert himself to bring in one 
more Member, the prosperity and funds of the Society would soon 
be still more increased. 
Mr. W. Hewarp Bett, in seconding, referred to the collection 
of notes and papers on Wiltshire left by the late Canon Jackson, 
which he had hoped might have been deposited in the Society’s
