admirers of our late Honorary Secretary. The practical side of geo- 
logy has not been forgotten in the arrangement of the General 
Meetings. In connection with the Sheffield Meeting a visit was paid 
to the famed Ruskin Museum, in Meersbrook Park, where the unique 
collections of minerals, gems, and art treasures were exhibited and 
described by Mr. Charles Bradshaw, F.C.S., of the Weston Park 
Museum, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. William White, the 
Curator. In connection with the Bridlington Meeting a two-days' 
Field Excursion was arranged for the examination of the coast sec- 
tions between Bridlington and Filey, which, notwithstanding the 
unfavourable weather of the second day, was much enjoyed.
