grouse and grey hen, ducks and game birds of several species, &c. 

 Hunting trophies from India, &c, are likewise displayed on the 

 walls. Before leaving the house Mr. Kane, on behalf of the 

 members, thanked Mrs. Leslie for her courtesy and attention, and 

 Mrs. Leslie expressed the hope that many good finds would await 

 the attention of the collectors during the afternoon. Mr. Kane 

 then led the party to the lake side, where lunch was partaken of, 

 and afterwards all scattered to follow their particular bents. The 

 earlier portion of the afternoon was mainly spent in the woods 

 bordering Glaslough Lake, and some of the more energetic 

 members paid a visit to Kivey Lake. Most of the party visited 

 the neat and well-kept church situate in the demesne — the old 

 parish church (Donagh) some three miles distant being now 

 unused — the vicar, Rev. E. Bigger, having it opened for their 

 inspection. By four o'clock almost all had reassembled in the 

 gardens, through which they were conducted by Mr. Bryce. 



Shortly after half-past four the conductor's whistle summoned 

 the party, and all proceeded to the railway station, where they 

 found tea awaiting them, the catering being done by Ye Olde 

 Castle. After tea a short business meeting was held, Mr. N. H. 

 Foster presiding. On the motion of Mr. J. R. Macoun, seconded 

 by Mr. F. A. Heron, hearty votes of thanks were passed to 

 Colonel and Mrs. Leslie for their kindness and courtesy in 

 admitting the party to their beautiful house and demesne, and to 

 Mr. Kane, who had kindly attended to direct their steps. Mr. 

 Adam Speers proposed, and Mr. S. Macoun seconded, a vote 

 of sympathy with Prof. Carpenter in his recent sad bereavement, 

 which was carried in silence, the members standing. Mrs. 

 Aird, Mrs. MacCarthy, Miss Young, and Mr. Hugh Aird having 

 been elected members, the proceedings terminated. About an 

 hour was now at the disposal of the members, which was devoted 

 to collecting in the neighbourhood of the station, &c, and at 6-30 

 the reserved carriages were re-entered and Belfast safely reached 

 at 8-15, thus bringing to a successful termination the Summer 

 Session of the Club's fifty-third year.
