IN MEMORIAM. — RICHARD CARTER, C.E., J. P., F.G.S. 
funeral, which took place at Christ Church, Harrogate, was very 
largely attended, and many public bodies w^ere represented. Mr. 
Carter's connection with the Yorkshire Geological Society was of 
earlier date than that of any of the other important public bodies 
that have been mentioned, and he had so closely maintained his 
interest in the Society and a cordial friendship with his colleagues in 
its direction, that here he will be greatly missed and his loss will be 
long regretted. 
At the Annual Meeting, held at Huddersfield, Nov. 13th, 1895, 
the following Resolutions were recorded on the motion of the 
Chairman (Mr. R. Reynolds), seconded by Mr. J. Stubbins : — 
" That the Society expresses its sorrow at the removal by death 
"of one of its Vice-Presidents, Mr. Richard Carter, C.K, F.G.S. A 
"Member of the Society since 1848, and of the Council since 1854, 
" Mr. Carter has been constant in his support during this long 
"period. His zeal for geology, combined with a mature experience 
" of the history of the Society for nearly half-a-century, and the 
" geniality of his friendships gave to Mr. Carter's influence an especial 
"value, and his loss is felt by his colleagues to be very great." 
" That a copy of the foregoing Resolution be sent to Mr. 
"Nicholas Carter, J.P., with the condolence of the Society towards 
" Mr. Richard Carter's relatives under their bereavement."
