III. GARDENS, REGENT’S PARK. 
1, BurILDINGS AND Works. 
The numerous buildings in the Society’s Gardens were 
kept in an efficient state of repair during the year 1870. 
A considerable sum was also devoted to the thorough 
renewal of the walks and paths, which it is hoped to bring 
into a still more satisfactory condition during the present 
year. 
‘ The most important new work carried on in the Society’s 
Gardens during the past year was the final completion of 
the new Elephant-house, to which, as has been already 
mentioned above, the sum of £2324 6s. 2d. was devoted, 
and charged to the “ extraordinary expenditure” of 1870. 
Full explanations concerning the objects proposed by 
the Council in erecting this building, and the mode in 
which they have been carried out, have been given in pre-
