The meeting was adjourned at 4 P. M. and resolved itself into an informa, 
reception which was thoroughly delightful. The various Exhibits were then 
more closely inspected. Miss Mary F. Miller had sent a choice collection of 
sheets from the Society Lichen Herbarium. Miss Lorenz showed specimens 
of Hepatics, and her “ Note Book ” containing a fine series of figures drawn 
from nature of whole plants (Hepatics) and microcopical details. Some of 
these have been reproduced in The Bryologist and we are promised more 
in the future. Miss Haynes showed sample pages and figures drawn from 
nature prepared for a proposed Manual of the Hepaticae of the Eastern, 
Southern and Middle States this side of the Rocky Mountains. 
Mr. Plitt drew attention to the advantages of his arrangement of lichens 
in glass boxes these permitting the upper and lower sides of the specimen to 
be easily observed. The little glass cases are held together by what are 
known as “insect mounting strips” and can be obtained from A. I. Root& 
Co., the “bee” people of Medina, Ohio, who make the well known honey 
boxes. These boxes are made from strips of wood, each box of one strip 
Mrs. Josephine D. Lowe was present and showed some of her lichens and 
hepatics collected in Nova Scotia, several being very rare, and one, at least, 
new to North America. The list is given in this number. Mr. Davis showed 
a fine collection of Myxomycetes most beautifully mounted. Copies of the 
January Bryologist were distributed having been published a few days in 
advance for the purpose. 
The attendance was smaller than at the New York meeting, but the 
members and friends present expressed great pleasure at the opportunity for 
making and renewing acquaintances as well as enjoying the program 
arranged for them. A number of letters of regret were received especially a 
cordial one from our President, Dr. Frye, also one from Dr. A. LeRoy 
Andrews. Secretary, pro. tern. 
GEORGIA GENICULATA IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. 
Attention is called to the omission of the name of the author, Miss Annie 
Lorenz, from the article on “Georgia geniculata in New Hampshire,” on 
page 10 of The Bryologist for January, 1909 . It was given in the Table of 
Contents on the cover, but was overlooked in the article itself. 
Mr. N. H. Dixon of Northampton, England, under date of January 15, 
1909, writes “To the distribution of Georgia geniculata (Bryologist, XII, 
p. 10) may be added Labrador, as I have a specimen from L’Anse au Clair, 
Labrador, sent me and collected by Rev. A. L. Waghorne.” — Editor.

July, Augustrand a part of September, 1908, was spent in Sandy Cove, 
Nova Scotia. This place is situated on Di,gby Neck about 20 miles from 
Digby, and at the narrowest part of the neck. The Bay of Fundy and St.
