The work of continuing the ' Catalogue of Scientific Papers ' is being 

 steadily carried on with the resources at the disposal of the Society. 

 The Council and the Catalogue Committee have had under serious 

 consideration the means which should be adopted to make the 

 Catalogue as useful and as complete as possible. The difficulties on 

 financial and other grounds are very great, but the Council is resolved 

 to persevere in this most valuable work.
