Your Council wishes to record its special thanks to Miss Greaves for kindly preparing and tabulating the above infor- mation for its use. Miss Prince has now completed her self-imposed task of compiling a card-index catalogue, in her beautiful script, of the Essex plants included in the Museum herbarium. This labour of love, which has involved the writing of over 1,650 cards, has occupied Miss Prince at intervals for several years past, and the thanks of the Council and members are due to her for her pains- taking patience. Gifts to the Museum include specimens from Miss G. Lister, Mr. Glegg, Mr. Owen and other members, to whom also thanks are due.

The City authorities purpose further restoration to the Lodge in the near future, and have given notice that again it will be necessary to close the museum. This is most regrettable, as the museum is rendered unavailable to visitors to Epping Forest at the very period when the latter are most numerous, but the necessity cannot be avoided in view
