 The two toasts allowed by the rules of the club were duly 

 honoured, but previous to this the Chairman very felicitously 

 gave the toast of the Queen, alluding in feeling terms to her 

 Majesty's illness. As time pressed, there was only time to 

 read a selection from the six papers on the notice paper, 

 though thej' were all of special interest. Mr Jas. Tait, Blains- 

 lie, had one on the " Black Dyke," with remarks on some camps 

 near Lauder. Dr A. J. Smith sent his published paper on the 

 Celtic Hell, now in Kelso Museum. Miss Sarah Dand, Morwick 

 Hall, forwarded drawings of the inscriptions on the rocks near 

 Morwick, and explanatory notes. 



A fine photograph of a group of fifteen flint implements found 

 at Farnham, in Coquetdale, was passed round the table, and a 

 paper thereon by Mr D. D. Dixon, Eothbury, was read ; and Mr 

 Loney sent a sketch copy of the cross at Crosshall.
