ANNUAL GENERAL :MEETING. llo 



collection of "parish sayings" should be made, for he had 

 found that in almost every parish the people had something to 

 say either for or against the neighbouring parish, and a collection 

 of these sayings would make rather an interesting chapter of 

 folk-lore. 



The Eev. Gr. L. Church read a paj^er, written by Dr. 0. Le 

 Neve Foster, on " The Eush-light in North Wales." Mr. E. 

 Symons said he knew from personal observation that such lights 

 were used in Cornwall within tlie last seventy years.

Mr. Vivian, in reply, said with reference to a remark Mr. 

 Jeffery made as to the family he (Mr. Vivian) represented, that 

 if there was any energy left in him which had descended to him 

 from his late uncle, he could only say it would be used in the 

 very best endeavours to promote the welfare of that Institution, 

 and every other institution and society with which he was 

 connected in Cornwall.
