Mr. Spicer did not think either the Blackberry or Raspberry was 

 eaten by birds in England, although the Strawberry was. 



Mr. Justice DoBsox had great pleasure in proposing that a special 

 vote of thanks should be given to Mr. Spicer for the paper which 

 had just been read, and to which he and all present, he was sure, 

 had listened with extreme interest. The Museum, too, could not 

 but be much indebted to the learned author of the paper for the 

 very liberal donation of the large collection of plants which accom- 

 panied and illustrated it. 



The vote having passed, and thanks having been accorded to the 

 other donors of presentations, the President left the chair.
