3. The Journal of Transactions. 



Volume XL VI I of the Transactions was issued early in 

 November, and, as it was unusually large, containing nearly 

 100 more pages than either of the two preceding volumes, the 

 General Index to the earlier volumes was not included in it. 

 It is hoped that an early opportunity may be found for publish- 

 ing a new edition pf this General Index, brought up to date.
