REPORT. 



The Committee of the Belfast Naturalists' Field Club now bring 

 before the Members their Thirty fifth Annual Report. 



The routine of Summer Excursions and Winter Meetings was 

 gone through as usual, but your Committee would desire to see 

 more active interest taken by the Members in work of the 

 Field Club. That there are yet wide fields of discovery await- 

 ing the labours of investigators is shown by the recently 

 published work of Dr. Hume on the Cretaceous Rocks of 

 Antrim. In this work the valuable assistance received 

 from some of your members is duly acknowledged. One 

 of your members Mr. H. Hanna, b.sc, m.a., has added a 

 new species of Polychaete to the Brittish Fauna by his 

 researches at Murlough Bay, and some other results require 

 further investigation. Special notice has been made of the 

 contributions from some of your members to the Geological 

 Collection of photographs made by the British Association. 

 The photos already acknowledged were contributed by a few of 

 our geological members. There are many others, who, no 

 doubt, could also help, and it would be well if they would com- 

 municate with the Secretaries. Also, through the efforts of the 

 Club, the old Town Cross of Downpatrick has been got together, 

 and re-erected on a suitable site at the East end of the Cathedral.

 made : —
