At nine o'clock the President procured attention while a 

 little necessary formal business was transacted. On his calling 

 for nomination of new members of the Club, nine names were 

 submitted to the meeting and duly elected. The secretaries 

 having made some announcements, the meeting again became 

 general, and it was only at a late hour that the members 

 dispersed.

The twenty-ninth Annual Meeting of the Club was held 

 on Wednesday evening, April 27th, in the Belfast Museum 

 — the President CMr. John Vinycomb, F.R.S.A.) in the chair.

 elected President. The motion was carried by acclamation. 

 On the motion of Mr. John Donaldson, seconded by Mr. John
