The attendance at the Meetings was not so large as the merits 

 of the lectures and papers deserved ; and the Committee regret to 

 have to report for the first time a falling off in the membership ; 

 but that is in a great measure owing to the removal of several 

 members from the neighbourhood. The Session was wound up 

 with a social Tea Meeting, which was kindly provided and carried 

 out by the lady members. After tea a Musical Entertainment was 

 given, and a very enjoyable evening spent. 



At the annual business meeting, the Secretary reported that the 

 income from all sources, including a balance of los. from last year, 

 and a profit of jP^2 2s. gd. from Mr. Vallance's entertainment, 

 amounted to p{^ ID 19s. rod.; total expenses, ^10 12s. gd.; leaving 

 a balance in hand of 7s. id. 



The Committee wish to thank all who have so ably contributed 

 to the work of the Society during the past season, and hope that 

 the Society may still be enabled to prove a source of usefulness 

 and intellectual recreation in the future.
