22 ANNUAL GENEEAL MEETING. 



The Council, before concluding their Report, would express 

 most gratefully their sense of obligation to Major Parkyn, the 

 Honorary Secretary, for the constant care and attention he 

 invariably bestows upon all matters connected with the welfare 

 of the Institution. For years past he has acted as the organizer 

 of its meetings, excursions, and local arrangements, a duty 

 requiring considerable forethought and the sacrifice of much 

 time. By his personal exertions, by his gifts, and in a variety 

 of ways he has contributed very materially to its prosperity. 



On the motion of Canon Bourke, it was resolved that the 

 Eeport be received, adopted, and printed.

 Centuries." — W. Sincock.

" Eecent Archaeological Discoveries in Cornwall." — Eev.

" On the Mineralogical Composition of the Eocks between 

 the Black Head and Porthalla."— T. Clark. 



A vote of thanks was passed to the Authors of papers and 

 to the Donors to the Museum and Library, and it was resolved 

 that the members named in the Eeport be the Council for the 

 ensuing year. The Meeting concluded with a vote of thanks to 

 the Chairman.
