 Lindon, A.R.S.M., F.G.S., a member of several years' standing 

 in the Society. Amongst his most valuable contributions to 

 the Society was " A Catalogue of such Minerals as are at 

 present known in Queensland, with their principal associations 

 and places of occurrence," and read before the Society, 15th 

 April, 1887.
