As this will be the last occasion on which I address the Society as President there are a number of generalizations which I should like to make. Unlike some Presidencies, that of the Antiquaries is no sinecure and the President is expected to work for his living. In this he is supported by the Vice-Presidents and Officers of the Society. During my time of office I have been splendidly upheld by Nowell Myres, John Cowen, and Arnold Taylor. Only those who have worked with them know with what devotion and energy they carry out their duties. In some respects I feel that I have given my Vice-Presidents too little to do, but that is my own fault and their advice on Council has been invaluable. I am confident that my successor will make use of them much more skilfully than I have done. It would be invidious to stretch out this catalogue of indebtedness but it would be inexcusable for me not to mention my gratitude to Mr. Thompson and Mr. Hopkins.
