REPORT ON NEW MEMBERS. 



The premium awarded to the person who obtains the largest 

 number of new members from any town or city in the county, 

 up to November 1st, is this year awarded to Andrew Dodge, of 

 Beverly, six dollars for obtaining thirty new members. 



The total number of new members to January 1st, 1890, was 

 sixty-six, including those who by receiving awards of seven 

 dollars, or upwards, in 1889, became members under the rule 

 which deducts three dollars from such awards to non-members for 

 membership, which membership is for life, without assessments, 

 and entitles the member to a voice and vote in the Society's 

 business, and a copy of its annual publication of its trans- 

 actions. The following places furnished the new members : 



Amesbury, 



Beverly, 



Boxford, 



Danvers, 



Hamilton, 



Lawrence, 



Lynnfield, 



Respectfully submitted, 



David W. Low, Secretary — Committee.
