EEPOBT OF COUNCIL. 



To the Officers and Members of the Natural History 

 Society of Montreal : — 



Ladies and Gentlemen, — 



Your Council would submit the following report for 

 the year ending May 31st, 1902 : 



The usual meetings of the Council have been held, and 

 the business intrusted to its care has been attended to 

 regularly. 



We regret to report the removal by death of three 

 members of the society, Messrs. E. L. Clarke, W. A. Hast- 

 ings and Mr. H. J. Tiffin. Seven new members have been 

 added to the roll during the year. The Council would 

 suggest that our members bear in mind the fact that a 

 large part of the regular income of the society depends 

 upon its membership, and much help in this direction 

 could be given by the members of the society. 



We are glad to report increased attendance at the 

 various meetings of the society during the year, and the 

 Somerville course of lectures, and the Saturday afternoon 

 talks to the young people have been particularly well 

 patronized. 



The following is a list of the papers presented at the 

 various monthly meetings : 



Oct. 27. " Some Mushrooms of the Island of Montreal." 

 — Bev. Bobert Campbell, D.D. 



Nov. 24. " Studies in the History of the Sea Urchin." — 

 Prof. E. W. MacBride, M.A., D.S.C.
