Crossland : Fimgus Foray at Rokeby. 



fung-i found by Mr. J. Needham and himself on a cast out cloth- 

 tab hearthrug- during^ the process of its decay in a damp wood. 

 Collections of coloured drawings of fungi by Mr. Gibbs and the 

 writer were on the tables. 



At the business meeting a hearty vote of thanks was passed 

 to the landowners who had kindly given permission for their 

 estates to be visited; also to Mr. Catterall for so heartily 

 devoting himself, so far as his duties allowed, to the interests of 

 the Foray. 



355 species have so far been determined. 



The Officers and Committee were re-elected. 



Roche Abbey and Maltby Woods district, near Rotherham 

 in S. W. Yorks., is to be recommended to the Union Executive 

 for the 1905 Foray. 



Three new members were elected. 



In every way the meeting was successful and enjoyable ; the 

 ground was productive of good things mycologically ; the 

 neighbourhood was one of the most charming we have yet 

 visited ; and last, but by no means least, the accommodation at 

 the Morritt Arms was most excellent both for work and 

 personal comforts ; indeed, it was by far the best it has yet 

 been our fortune to secure, and we are much indebted to Mr. 

 Burton for recommending its selection.
