former Messrs. E. Step and Henry J. Turner were this year's 

 delegates, and at the first July meeting j\Ir. Step read his 

 report of the four days spent at Guildford in early June. To

The Publication Committee found it possible this year to 

 publish the "Abstract of Proceedings" some six weeks earlier 

 than in previous years. The volume consisted of xvi + 

 134 pages with 13 plates, and is one of the most attractive 

 that the Society has produced. The Council wish to accord 

 their hearty appreciation of the work of the Publication 

 Committee, and also to accord their best thanks to those 

 gentlemen who voluntarily came forward to help the 

 Publication Fund, and whose names are printed on the 

 inside of the cover of the " Abstract."
