Curator’s Report. 
I have the honour of presenting to you my first annual report 
as resident Curator of the Museum, being the forty-sixth in the 
series of reports since the organization of the Society. The year 
just completed has been an exceedingly important one, and 
a new epoch in the history of the Society has begun.
