ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT, 

 JOHN DAVIBS ENTS, Esq., F.G.S. 



I shall begin what I have to say, to-day, by throwing out 

 some suggestions as to what might be undertaken, by Members 

 of the Eoyal Invitation, with advantage to the Cornish student. 

 As example is better than precept, I give samples of what I mean. 

 I appeal to all members to help, and I shall especially ask some 

 of my lady friends to give us their assistance. 



First, I give a list of portraits, — painted, engraved, and 

 sculptured — of Davies Gilbert, as an example of one such branch 

 of work : —
