Author's Preface. 



In preparing this Index of the PubHcations of the Canadian Institute the 

 aim has been to give as full and complete an Index as possible of papers that 

 cover almost the entire range of scientific and literary study. The entries 

 were all made by Mrs. Patterson or myself and in order to avoid errors in the 

 references they were verified by both of us. 



The follow^ing members and friends of the Institute have very kindly 

 read the proof to correct archaic spelling and detect typographical errors — 

 Professor J. P. McMurrich, Professor D. R. Keys, Professor J. H. Faull, 

 Prof. E. M. Walker, Mr. A. MacLean and Miss Jennie Macfarlane. The 

 author desires to take this opportunity of expressing to them and to many 

 others who helped in the work his thanks for their valuable aid in increasing 

 the accuracy of the Index. 



J. PATTERSON.
