ANNUAL MEETING. 17 



Langdon Bonython of Australia, another good collection, which 

 includes some fine specimens of cerrusite, malachite, and native 

 copper from the Broken Hills and Burra Burra Mines. These have 

 been separately arranged in a case in the geological room, as 

 typical of Australian ores. Mr. T. V. Keam of Keam's Canon, 

 Arizona, U.S., has contributed various articles of American 

 Indian manufacture, consisting of silver ornaments made from 

 American coins, a number of basket work plaques, a girdle, and 

 a loom with a partly-made fabric, illustrating the implements 

 used and the method employed in weaving the famed Navajo 

 blankets. This collection has also been placed in a case by 

 itself. The late Miss M. S. Tucker, formerly of Trematon 

 Castle, presented, a few days before her death, an elegant little 

 box inlaid with a finely executed mosaic, which was given to 

 Capt. Murray, E.N., by Cardinal Antonelli, for conveying him 

 in his ship to Portugal on a political embassy. 



Mrs. Enys of Enys gave a specimen of mediaeval pottery, 

 part of a rude still which was used in St. Just. It formed part 

 of the Borlase collection, and was purchased at the Laregan 

 sale in 1887. 



Miss S. A. C. Whitford of Truro, is the donor of a 

 beautifully embroidered silk waistcoat, in good preservation, 

 worn by Sir Michael Nowell, Kt., of Penwarne, Mawnan, near 

 Falmouth, High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1786; the exquisitely 

 worked flowers and other devices being interspersed with 

 imitation gems. It has been placed under glass in a suitable 

 frame. 



Mrs. Jago, of Truro, has made a very acceptable addition 

 to the series of portraits of Past Presidents, by presenting an 

 excellent likeness of her late husband. Dr. Jago, F.E.S., for 

 many years a most useful member of this society. 



The Council having served the appointed time, must now 

 ask this meeting to proceed to a fresh election.

 for the last two years, and therefore retires, the other members 

 of the council being grateful to him for his services. They have 

 much pleasure in proposing, as President for the next two years, 

 Mr. John Davies Enys, F.G.S., who is well qualified, and has 

 already been a benefactor of the society. They further nominate
