[Proc. B.N.F.C , 



It was noticed in the process of examining the essays that 

 eight of the young ladies forgot to state in their manuscripts their 

 home or private address, in addition to the name of the school ; 

 this omission, however, was not taken into account in awarding 

 the marks on this occasion. 



This prize is awarded to Miss Madge Tomb, Ladies' School, 

 Cookstown, Co. Tyrone, with 8r per cent, of full marks. The 

 following are highly commended :— Miss Jane Reid, Royal School, 

 Dungannon, with 79 per cent, and Miss Minnie Ferguson, of same 

 school, with 78 per cent. 



Although there was no competition for Prize C. — " For the 

 best description of one of the large rivers of Ulster from its source 

 to its mouth " — the essay submitted by Master Samuel Gibson 

 M'Connell, Campbell College, Belfast, has been adjudged worthy 

 of the prize. 



No entries were received for the Zoological Prize B.
