Newman mentioned that his gynandromorphous Aniorpha popnli 

 had been dissected by the Rev. C. R. N. Burrows. 



Mr. R. Adkin explained to the meeting the position at CoUey

 should be made at the present meeting. This was done and the 

 sum of £2 15s. was collected and sent to the local committee.
