To the Preside?it and Members of the Hamilton Association : 



In submitting this report the Section desires to intimate that 

 the usual interest in the work done by the members during the past 

 year has been maintained. 



Since the removal of the Association from the Alexandra 

 Arcade to the more comfortable apartment in the new Library 

 Building, we have enjoyed our meetings more thoroughly than 

 formerly, and are pleased to state that our membership has 

 increased. 



With the exception of the three months required for moving 

 and fitting up, we have had a meeting every month, at which papers 

 of more than usual interest were read, excepting January, 1891, 

 when we adjourned after the preliminary business was completed. 

 The Chairman, Col. C, C. Grant, has been most indefatigable in his 

 exertions to make these meetings a success. 



Through the Chairman and Mr. A. E. Walker, the attention of 

 the members has been specially called to the discoveries of new 

 forms and species of fossil sponges and stromatoporse, of which a 

 liberal donation has been made to the Museum. 



Following are the names of the papers, authors, and dates on 

 which they were read : —
