With regard to the number of members, I have to state 

 that in October, 1860, the number on our list was 118, since 

 which we have lost one by death, viz., the Rev. Delaval 

 Knight, and that we have obtained, (including 7 who were 

 admitted to-day,) 36 new members, making a total at this 

 date of isS. 



Kelso. — " The first Field meeting of the year 1861 was held 

 at Kelso, on the 30th of May, when a large number of mem- 

 bers were assembled. There were present — the President, 

 Messrs. Robert Embleton, Geo. Tate, Robert Home, Wm. 

 Dickson, Fred. CoUingwood, P. Clay, James Tait, Charles 

 Rea, Scott Dudgeon, John Clay, P. Dickson, Dr. Robson 

 Scott, the Revds. J. Dixon Clark, Wm. Darnell, Thomas 

 Leishman, Geo. Walker, Robert Jones, Robert Green ; and 

 as visitors, Mr. Darling, Dr. M^Kenzie and Dr. Douglas of 

 Kelso, Mr. Heckford, Curator of the Kelso Museum, and Mr. 

 J. A. H. Murray, Secretary of the Hawick Archseological 

 Society. 



After breakfast, and before proceeding on our walk, an able 

 paper by Mr Stuart of Edinburgh was read, ' On Kelso 

 Abbey, Roxburgh Castle, and other antiquities of the neigh- 

 bourhood ; ' and the information contained in this paper 

 prepared the minds of the members to view with a deeper 

 interest the scenes visited during the day. Through the kind- 

 ness of Mr. Stuart, there was shown to the meeting, a fac- 

 simile of the Charter granted by Malcolm IV. to the Abbey, 

 the original of which had been written in its Scriptorium.
