THE EXCURSION. 19 
In bringing the proceedings to a close, the High Sheriff, 
at the conclusion of Mr. Quekett’s paper, took occasion on 
the part of the Society, to thank the Chancellor in the 
warmest terms for the handsome manner in which they 
had been entertained; their reception had been in every 
way worthy of his distinguished character for unbiassed 
hospitality, and for that kindness of feeling which had ren- 
dered him alike beloved and honoured by all classes amongst 
whom he moved. 
The CHANCELLOR expressed the great pleasure and 
satisfaction he had enjoyed in receiving the Society, and 
in having taken some part with them in these interesting 
proceedings. After thanking Mr. Quekett, and passing a 
well merited eulogy on his able paper, he concluded by 
expressing a hope that on some future occasion the Society 
would again visit this neighbourhood, where a large unex- 
plored field of great antiquarian interest still invited their 
further investigation, and that they would then afford him 
the gratification of again entertaining them on a more ex- 
tended scale.
