We have lost another eminent member of our Society in Mr Cosmo Innes, of whom I shall venture to give a short account. I do not think it necessary to make it long, and this for various reasons. Mr Innes's labours were more nearly akin to the studies of another Society which meets under the same roof with ourselves, and within that body, I believe, tributes have been paid to his memory far more intelligent and more worthy of his reputation than any I could venture to offer. The general features of his career, also, are so well and widely known, and have been recalled to our recollection of late in such various ways, that any detailed narrative would be superfluous.
