place so long occupied by his revered mother. He 
thought they should record their thanks. 
Mr. Hargreaves moved, and Dr. Gomes seconded, that 
it be recorded on the minutes that the meeting express 
their grateful thanks to His Majesty the King for 
acceding to their request to take the place of his 
revered mother. 
The Secretary was desired to forward the resolution 
to the Government Secretary. 
Mr. T. S. Hargreaves exhibited specimens of 
diamondiferous gravel and conglomerate, presented to 
the Institute of Mines and Forests by Mr. Lambert 
Henery, which, he thought, would be of interest to the 
members. Probably he might be able to get other 
specimens for the Museum. He also exhibited a box of 
cigars made from tobacco grown by Indians on the 
Rupununi savannah. 
The Chairman said he was sure they were all much 
obliged to Mr. Hargreaves for showing the specimens. 
The thanks of the Society were accorded for the 
following donations to the Library : 
From Government — Suggestions for applicants for 
concessions, with map ; part 1 vol. 33 Geological 
Survey of India. 
From G. H. Hawtayne — Prize Essays on Trade

From Thomas Daly — Beaconsfield and his time, 5 
vols. ; and Report on canes from Beterverwaoftino- o-rown
