ANNUAL BUSINESS MEETING. XXXIX. 



The notes on the different Churches are herewith presented to the 

 Field Club, and the Committee venture to hope that they may find a 

 ermanent place in the published records of the Proceedings. The 

 total number of Churches mentioned in this Report as having lost any 

 features worthy of record will be found to be 108. Returns from a 

 few more parishes were also obtained, but nothing worthy of printed 

 record seemed to find a place in them. The detailed notes on each 

 accompany this general statement of your Sub -Committee." 



ELECTION OF OFFICERS AND COMMITTEES. 



Mr. BARROW proposed the re-election of the able, pains- 

 taking, and courteous President, Mr. Nelson M. Richardson. 

 Canon FLETCHER, in seconding, said that Mr. Richardson's 

 wide knowledge of the natural sciences and of archaeological 

 subjects, coupled with his unfailing courtesy, qualified him 

 pre-eminently for the post. The resolution was carried 

 with acclamation. f ' 



Canon FLETCHER, in proposing the re-election of the Rev. 

 Herbert Pentin as Honorary Secretary, said that he was a 

 very busy man, having the duties of a military chaplaincy 

 added to his parochial work and his literary studies, but 

 that, forasmuch as the postponement of all outdoor meetings 

 of the Club until after the war relieved the Secretary of a 

 considerable portion of his work, they had less compunction in 

 asking Mr. Pentin to accept the office again. This was seconded 

 by Captain ACLAND, and carried with applause. The Hon. 

 Secretary re- nominated Mr. H. Pouncy as assistant Secretary. 



Captain Acland was unanimously re-elected Hon. Treasurer, 

 as was Canon Fletcher Hon. Editor. 



The PRESIDENT nominated for the ensuing year the retiring 

 Vice-Presidents, with the addition of Canon Fletcher, " who 

 has done much and very distinguished work for the Club/' 

 and Mr. W. de C. Prideaux, " who, besides his work on brasses, 

 &c., has done valuable service in important inventions." 



The Sectional Committees. The Directors of the Dorset 

 Photographic Survey, the Earthworks Committee, the 

 Numismatic Committee, and the Restored Churches' Com- 

 mittee were all re-elected.
