The thanks of the Society are certainly due to the gentlemen 
who so kindly contributed these papers, which not only afforded 
instruction and pleasure to members, but also maintained the 
high reputation that the Society’s proceedings have acquired during 
the last few years. 
Three excursions were arranged for the summer months, but 
only two of them took place. The first was to Wingfield Manor, 
under the leadership of Mr. H. S. Skipton, and it is a matter for 
regret that it was only scantily patronized by members, as 
Wingfield Manor is a place of great historical interest, and the 
route selected for the walk passed through some very pretty 
country. The day was fine, and those who went had a very 
enjoyable trip. The second excursion was to Coventry, under the 
leadership of Mr. W. G. Fretton and Mr. Horace T. Brown. 
Mr. Fretton, who lives at Coventry, kindly undertook to draw up 
the programme for the use of members, and as the town teems 
with subjects of archeological and general interest, he provided 
one that gave great satisfaction to all who took part in the 
excursion. It is pleasant to record that the members turned up 
in considerable numbers, that the weather was extremely fine, and 
that the excursion was a great success from every point of view; 
and the committee sincerely hope that the success scored on this 
Occasion will stimulate members to attend the excursions in 
larger numbers and with an increased zeal for archeological 
subjects.
