I 



The experiment of a Monthly Paper giving announcements 

 of Meetings and short Papers on various subjects connected 

 with the different Societies located in the Museum, has had to 

 be discontinued owing to want of support. Our Natural Science 

 Society has returned to the old system — Notice Papers sent each 

 month to every Member containing the announcement of 

 Meetings only. 



Your Committee express their great regret at losing from 

 Chester, Mr. A. O. Walker, who has always proved their 

 staunch friend and supporter. As, however, he will reside in 

 the District, we may hope to see him from time to time, and we 

 shall always feel sure of his interest in our Society. 



Through the year there have been regular Meetings of 

 the Committee for the transaction of business, and we hope that 

 our Members have found that the working of the Society has 

 been carried on for the general good of all, and the advancement 

 of our scientific knowledge of the district. 



HENRY STOLTERFOTH, M.A., M.D., 

 Scientific Secretary.
