PROCEEDINGS 



BERWICKSHIRE NATURALISTS' CLUB, 



Address delivered at Berwick on the 26th of September, 1862, 

 By John B. Boyd, Esq., of Clierrytrees, President. 



Gentlemen, 



It lias always been a duty imposed on the Pre- 

 sident to give, at this our Anniversary Meeting, a detailed 

 account of the observations and discoveries made by the Club 

 during the past year. I am sorry to say that I have been 

 unavoidably prevented from attending most of the meetings, 

 which, although it deprived myself of much pleasure, is so far 

 fortunate for the club, as it has thrown me entirely on my 

 friend, our able and indefatigable Secretary, Mr. Tate, who 

 has kindly supplied me with minutes of our several meetings, 

 much fuller and more accurate than I could have written, 

 and which, I am happy to say, has rendered my office a 

 sinecure. 



I have also to thank Mr. D. M. Home for his notes on the 

 Dunse meeting; and Mr. Jerdon, for his botanical observa- 

 tions made at Jedburgh.
