The following new collectors were heartily welcomed: —Mesdames Gorringe, Walter Thomson, and Trevithick. The secretary (Mrs. Singleton) announced the list for the year as follows:—Mesdames Holdsworth, George Thompson, Lea, Gorringe, Walter Thomson, Trevithick, Dufr, and Garni Wilson; Misses Holmes, Troup, Davidson, Buckeridge, Williams, and Stowell.
The president expressed deep appreciation of the services of those who had acted as collectors for many years. The organising secretary; speaking upon the work of the society, specially stressed the work of the translators and of the colporteurs.
