(FROM MAY, 1916, TO MAY, 1917.) 



WINTER SESSION, 1916-1917. 



Owing to the continuance of the War, with the sorrow 

 which it has brought, and is bringing, into so many homes, 

 together with the uncertainty as to what railway facilities 

 might at any time be obtainable, and the probable difficulties 

 which might arise in arranging about other means of transit, 

 it was decided that all the summer excursions during the 

 past season should be abandoned. Consequently, the only 

 meetings which have been held during the year have been 

 the two in the winter and the general meeting in May. 



FIRST WINTER MEETING. 



Tuesday, December 12th, 1916. 



The opening meeting of the session was held in the Reading 

 Room of the County Museum at Dorchester. The President 

 (Mr. Nelson M. Richardson) occupied the chair, and was 

 supported by Sir Daniel Morris, the Rev. Herbert Pentin, 

 Captain Acland, Mr. Alfred Pope, and Mr. Henry Symonds. 

 Twenty-nine members of the Club were present.
