whence the members were driven back to the headquarters. The 
fung! collected were at once placed out on exhibition, but ay 
Lng ce myosotis Fr. and Scleroderris fagi (Phillips) Mass 
are worthy of note. In the evening at 8.30 at the headquarters 
the President presided over the annual general meeting for thé 
election of.ogacers’ for the ensuing year, when Miss Annie 
Lorrain Smith, F.L.S., was unanimously elected President; Mr 
Arthur Lister, F.R.S., Vice President ; and Mr. Carleton Rea, 
BCL. Mary &, Hon. Secretary and Treasurer. The Hiss. 
Secretary then reported that he had, with the approval of their 
President, tendered to Mrs. H. Marshall Ward, on behalf of the 
British Mycological Society, their heartfelt sympathy at the 
irreparable loss that she and Science generally had sustained by 
the premature death of her husband, and assuring her that the 
memory of their late Vice-President would always be held in 
their greatest esteem and respect. Mrs. H. Marshall Ward in 
reply begged the Hon. Secretary to tender to the members of 
the British Mycological Society her best thanks and said that 
her husband was always very proud of the fact that he had been 
their President for two years and subsequently their Vice-Pres- 
dent to the present time. The members strongly approved of 
what the Hon. Secretary had done on their behalf and resolved 
that the same should be duly set out in the report of that meet- 
ing. The invitation of their fellow member Professor M. C. 
Potter to visit Newcastle-upon-Tyne next year was cordially 
accepted, and the consideration of the invitations from the Rev. 
H. Purefoy FitzGerald, F.L.S., to select the neighbourhood of 
Wellington College, Berkshire, and Mr. Angus Grant that of 
Drumnadrochit were deferred until the next annual meeting: 
The date for the Newcastle-upon-Tyne foray was not deter- 
mined, but it was not to clash with the meetings of The Crypto- 
eamic Society of Scotland or The Yorkshire Union.t The Hon. 
Treasurer then reported that the sum of £28. 10s. Id. stood to 
their credit at that date at the Post Office, and that since the 
last foray six ordinary members had been duly elected, namely, 
Mr. E. J. Sharpe, 1309, Fenchurch Street, London ; Miss Blanche 
Shadwell, of Trewollack, Bodmin; Mr. Gustav Natorp, of

British Mycological Society was invited by Mr. F. W. Rudler, 
1S.O., Hon. Secretary to the Corresponding Societies Com
