death of Mr. J. B. Robinson, who had done so much to elucidate the 
fungi in the neighbourhood of Louth, and he had also to report with 
regret the resignation of Professor F. W. Oliver, M. A., D. 5c. of 
University College, London. The Hon. Treasurer reported that the 
sum of £26 gs. 1d. was at that time standing to their credit at the 
Post Office, but from that must be deducted the cost of the pro- 
gramme of the present meeting £1, the hire of plates and room for 
exhibition of the fungi collected, and also the sum of fifteen shillings 
which had been received for subscriptions for the season 1904. The 
President then strongly pointed out the necessity of still contributing 
to the printing fund, and most kindly undertook, as his contribution 
thereto, to pay for one coloured plate* in the present number of the 
Transactions. The election of officers for the ensuing year was then 
proceeded with, Mr. Worthington G. Smith, F. L. 5. was un- 
animously elected President ; Professor H. Marshall Ward, D. Sc. 
F.R.S., &c., Vice-President ; and Mr. Carleton Rea, B.C. L., M.A, 
Hon. Secretary and Treasurer. An invitation from the Committee 
of “The Haslemere Microscope and Natural History Society,” to 
hold our annual foray for the season 1905, at Haslemere and Hindhead, 
was unanimously accepted. “he members then considered several 
suggestions for the place of meeting next year, and as there was a 
general feeling that the convenience of our Northern members 
should be considered, it was unanimously resolved to fix upon Whitby 
as the centre, and to work the Mulgrave and Arncliffe woods from 
the 12th to the 19th of September 1904. 
On Wednesday the 7th of October, the members were busy during 
the forenoon in determining the species collected on the previous 
day, and in placing the same on exhibition. A start was made about 
mid-day, the members proceeding along the Hungerford Road, and 
working that side of the Forest and on to a fir-plantation, where
