Hnnual IReport. 



Your Committee beg to submit the following Report of 

 the Proceedings of the Club for the past year, being the 

 thirty-ninth Annual Report. 



The work of the Club has gone on as usual during the 

 past sessions, and the arrangements made at the first Com- 

 mittee meeting have been fully carried out. 



During the Summer Session the following Field Meetings 

 have been held: — 



Scrabo Hill (half day) . . . . . . 25th May. 



Benderg Bay . . . . . . . . 8th .June. 



Dublin and District (with I.F.C.* Union) .. 18th— 22nd June 



Cave Hill (half day) . . . . . . 6th July. 



Coast Road .. .. .. .. 11th— 13th July. 



Benevenagh . . . . . . 10th August. 



The Gobbins (extra excursion) . . . . 24th August. 



Castlewellan . . . . . . . . 7th September. 



At three of these excursions — Coast Road, Benevenagh, 

 and Castlewellan — the attendance was much below the aver- 

 age. The practical work of the Club is done out of doors, 

 and members miss many opportunities and points of interest 

 by absenting themselves from excursions which are planned 

 with the greatest forethought to contribute the utmost 

 variety of interest possible. 



The Winter Session opened with a most successful Con- 

 versazione in the Exhibition Hall; the exhibits were nume- 

 rous and interesting, and the attendance was large. 



The meetings of the Winter Session were as follows : —
