REPORT OF COUNCIL. ix 
FRANCIS ARCHER, B.A. 
In Mr. F. Archer this Society, and Science in general 
in Liverpool, has lost one of the most widely cultured as 
well as one of the most earnest and enthusiastic of Nat- 
uralists. His father was Francis Archer, a surgeon who 
had come from Belfast to settle in Liverpool, and was 
well known, like his son, for his interest in the Natural 
Sciences. Frank Archer was born in 1839, educated at 
ROD 2c LESE 
For the accompanying portrait of Mr. F. Archer we are indebted to the 
kindness of the Editors of the ‘‘ Naturalist ” where the cut appeared in April, 
1892, in an “‘In Memoriam” notice by Mr. Mellard Reade.
