Extract

It is now twenty-three years since Mr. John Mitchell Kemble, in an address delivered before the Royal Irish Academy, drew attention to a small bronze object of unknown use in the museum of Dr. Petrie in Dublin. I have to acknowledge with much regret that so long a time has been allowed to elapse, and yet no illustration or complete description of this object has yet appeared; and I beg to offer the Society my sincere thanks for the opportunity now afforded of submitting to your consideration such drawings and photographs as I have been able to obtain of this interesting relic.
