REPORT OF SECRETARY (1908). 
The Club continues in a flourishing condition both 
as to members and funds. 
The total number on roll is 26. 
A considerable amount of activity was shown 
during the year, more than the usual number of plants 
having been submitted to the referees. 
Much attention has been given to Hepatics and the 
plants distributed show that marked progress has been 
made in the study of this interesting group. 
Mr. J. B. Duncan now retires from the Treasurer- 
ship and will be succeeded by Mr. S. J. Owen, to whom 
members will in future kindly send their subscriptions. 
Mr. W. R. Sherrin will continue to act as distributer. 
April, 1909. 
D. A. JONES, 
Secretary.
