Abstract
At the annual general meeting of the Ray Society held on March 13, the following officers were re-elected: President, Sir Sidney Harmer; Treasurer, Sir David Prain; Secretary, Dr. W. T. Caiman. Mr. J. M. Offord was elected a vice-president in succession to the late Canon G. R. Bullock-Webster, and Mr. R. S. W. Sears, Mr. M. A. C. Hinton and Mr. A. G. Lowndes were elected new members of Council. The Council's report directed attention to the decline in the receipts from all the regular sources of the Society's income, and stated that unless further support for the Society is obtained, a regrettable curtailment of publications may soon become necessary. It was stated that the plates for the second volume of Prof. T. A. Stephenson's “British Sea Anemones” are being engraved, and it is hoped that the volume will soon be in the press. The Council reported with gratitude the receipt of a donation of £30 towards the cost of this volume from Miss Teresa Gosse, the grand-daughter of Philip Henry Gosse, author of the “Actinologia Britannica” (1860).
