 proposed that the Club should undertake, through its members, 

 the copying of insci-iptions in the churches and graveyards in

 Mr. W. Penney, and after some discussion it was moved by the 

 Rev. 0. P. Cambr dge that Mr. Mayo should undertake the 

 organising of this work, and report to a future meeting. Mr. 

 T. B. Groves having seconded this it was assented to by Mr. 

 Mayo and carried unanimously.

 Mr. Shipp's valuable collection of fossils, suggesting that it

 out.
