( Ixxiv ) 



gives me to feel that I shall be svicceeded in the chair by my 

 old and valued friend and colleague, Professor Poulton, whose 

 work I have so often alluded to, and who has done so much in 

 so many ways for the study of Entomology. 1 know that he 

 will not agree with me in all that I have just said, but I, for 

 one, shall look forward to his Presidential Addresses, in the 

 hope that he may clear up many doubtful points. I feel sure that 

 you could not choose a better man to preside over the interests 

 of the Society and to uphold it in its present flourisliing 

 condition.
