Longbottom, John Simon, and Frank Simpson; and the 
revenue from these funds will be applied to the further- 
ance of the Society’s work in the form of Lectures, Prizes, 
or Grants, as the Committee e the Society may, from time 
to time, think fit. 
The following Excursions and Field Meetings took 
place during the Summer Session. A new feature of these 
was the introduction of several Excursions on Saturdays, 
to suit the convenience of those Members who are unable 
to attend the Excursions usually held on Wednesdays. 
This arrangement was much appreciated by those who 
took part, and it is proposed to carry out the Excursions 
for the present summer on the same lines.
