who was a life member of onr society and one of its founders. 
It also contains the President’s annual address and two short 
geological articles by the same writer. Mr. W. F. Ganong 
has contributed in this number, his notes on the marine 
animals of the Bay of Fundy. 
The council would add that the question of having a 
more suitable building, and one owned by the society, has 
been before them. They trust that this most desirable object 
may be promoted in every way possible, by all who have an 
interest in natural history and especially in the preservation 
of the many and valuable specimens now in their charge, 
and continually coming into the museum. 
The council desires to thank all who have aided in the 
work of the society, and the city press for the regular insertion 
of notices of meetings during the year. 
Respectfully submitted, 
J. Roy Campbell, 
Secretary to Council.
