Accessions to Museum 
The additions to the collections of the National Museum have been 
less than usual this year, owing to the small amount of field work under- 
taken. This loss has been offset to a certain extent, however, by the 
receipt of the large collection of archaeological material from the estate of 
the late Dr. H. M. Ami. Some of this material has had to be discarded 
as showing no signs of human workmanship. It is, therefore, unwise to 
estimate the number of specimens that will be retained after distribution 
of duplicates to other institutions. Another valuable accession is an 
interesting wampum record from the Iroquois which was secured through 
Chief Loft, of Caledonia, Ontario. 
The specimens catalogued in the course of the fiscal year are: 
Ethnological 50 
Archaeological 490 
Osteological 4 
Total 544 
The Ami collection is not included in the above table.
