Banks, Srd May, 18Ji.l. 
My Dear Sir, 
I sent to you on Saturday the Reports of our Wakefield meeting, 
those of the Doncaster and Halifax meetings w ill be out in a fortnight. 
Mr. Morton thinks his paper should not be printed, what is your 
opinion ? 
Dr. Buckland promises to come to Leeds if he is not called awa/ 
to South "Wales at the time. I should have been glad to have kept 
him for the annual meeting, but ^Ir. Sopwith having urged him to 
come to Leeds I had no choice but following his lead. 
How many extra copies of your paper on the museum should be 
printed. We ought to have them for distribution to other societies, 
as well as to our members. 
The Council inchned to ask Mr. Barnes to preside, if you think 
you can get the local committee together soon, it would be well to 
take their advice. Would Mr. J. G. ^larshall take the chair ? Canyon 
get us any papers from Mr. West, Mr. W. S. Ward, or from any 
other person. 
I hope the local committee will canvass hard ; Mr. Teale suggests 
the addition to it of Mr. George Shaw, Mr. Edward Waud, now in 
Leeds, G. W. Birchoff, X. P. Simes, and Rev. J. Holroyd, the last is 
not a member. ^Ir. Teale himself is so busy preparing a Report for 
a Medical work that he cannot give us any time. He will however 
canvass for us. 
I am, my dear Sir, yours sincerely, 
Thomas Wilson, Secretary.

My Dear Sir, 
I have been so much from home lately that I have not had an 
opportunity of attending to your letters. It would be quite con- 
venient to me to meet the Agricultural Society's Committee on the 
17th inst. The resolution relative to the museum is rather out of 
place, as we do not know how many or what duplicates we have, but 
something should be done towards an arrangement of what we have
