Field Meetings. —Six field meetings were held during the summer, all 
of which were very successfully carried out and well attended. On May 
19th the members were invited by Sir Fowell Buxton to visit him at 
Warlies Park, and a most enjoyable afternoon was spent. On June 28th 
the Club was most hospitably entertained, in company with the Hertford¬ 
shire Natural History Society, at Easneye Park, Ware, by Mr. and Mrs. 
Thomas Fowell Buxton. On June 15th and 16th a two days’ meeting 
was held at Grays for the purpose of exploring the Deneholes in Hang¬ 
man’s Wood, the Geologists’ Association joining in the excursion, and 
bearing part of the expenses. On July 14th an informal meeting was 
held at Boxliill, in conjunction with the members of the Richmond 
Athenaeum. The Fourth Annual Cryptogamic Meeting took place on 
September 29th, and was very numerously attended, despite the most 
unfavourable weather. An exhibition of specimens of Fungi, Mosses, 
Algae, Flowering Plants, with microscopes, and botanical drawings and 
diagrams, was held in the evening at the Roebuck Inn, Buckhurst Hill. 
The success of this experimental exhibition emboldens the Council to 
continue and extend the same, and on Friday and Saturday, October 3rd 
and 4th, 1884, an exhibition of Fungi and other botanical objects will be 
held at the “Roebuck” rooms, under the superintendence of many of our 
best known botanical members, in connection with a two days’ “Fungus 
Foray” in Epping Forest. The Council has great pleasure in gratefully 
acknowledging aid in various ways in conducting the field meetings, given 
by the following gentlemen :—Professor Boulger, Mr. J. Britten, Mr. Alfred 
Fowell Buxton, Mr. W. Cole, Dr. Cooke, Lieutenant Croft, Mr. J. English, 
Mr. H. Groves, Mr. E. M. Holmes, Mr. T. Y. Holmes, Mr. D. Houston,
