REPORT OF THE COUNCIL,

ELECTED 2nd MAY, 1845.

THE COUNCIL of the Camden Society, elected on the 2nd of May, 1845, have great pleasure in repeating the assurance so uniformly made by former Councils of the continued welfare of the Society, and of establishing that gratifying fact, by pointing out, in confirmation of it, that the investments standing in the name of the Trustees of the Society have during the past year been increased from £779 158. 1d. to £831 138. 11d. Three per Cent. Consols.

The Council have added the following gentlemen to the List of Local Secretaries ::

JOHN BRUCE, Esq. F.S.A., for Gloucestershire;

Rev. JAMES RAINE, F.S.A. Newc., for Durham;

and HENRY ANNESLEY WOODHAM, Esq. M.A. of Jesus College, Cambridge, who has been appointed Local Secretary for Cambridge, in the place of the Rev. John Lodge, M.A.

And it would be very gratifying to the Council if other gentlemen possessed of local influence would kindly render assistance to the Society by undertaking the comparatively easy duties annexed to the office of Local Secretary. There is nothing which can more surely contribute to the permanent well-being of the Camden Society than such co-operation on the part of members resident in the country.
