an adequate expression of the v1ilue of his long and devoted services. In him
we have lost a firm Mend, a bl'illiaut At·chroologist, 11nrty, particulars of whfoh, when completed, will be prepared for our
Transactions.
In assembling at Deal this year for the first time, the Council feel confident
that the members will thoroughly enjoy their two days' sojourn in a district so
full of archreological interest.
The Rev. J. A. Boodle moved: "That the Report as read be
adopted." This was seconded by J. F. Wadmore, Esq., and carried
unanimously.
It was moved by the Rev. A. J. Pearman, seconded by George
Dowker, Esq., and carried, " That the 1·etiring Auditors be re-elected
for the ensuing year."
It was moved by E.W. Fry, Esq., seconded by T. F. Peacock,
Esq., and carried, "That the six retiring Members of the Council be
re-elected."
The following were elected to Membership: 'l'he Rev. J. Marling
Apperly, C. W. Thompson, Esq., Mms Stokes, .Alderman Cottew,
and Miss A. J. Chambers.
The Business being ooncluded, progress was made to Deal Castle,
which, by the courtesy of Lol'd Herschell, G.O.B., etc., was opened
for the Society's inspection. W. L. Rutton, Esq., F.S.A., kindly read
a Paper on the history of the fortress, after which the company
perambulated the interior and the ramparts, subsequently proceeding
in carriages to Betteshanger, the seat of Lord Northbourne, who
had most 1dndly invited the members to partake of light luncheon.
During the repast the noble President, on behalf of the Society,
cordially thanked Lord Northbourne for his generous hospitality.
After luncheon the company divided into parties, which were conducted
over the house by Lord and Lady N orthbourne, Miss James,
and his Lordship's Land .Agent. Ample time was allowed for those
who wished to pay an informal visit to :Betteshanger Church, which
stands within. the park.
Ash Church was next visited, under the kindly guidance of the
Vicar, the Rev. T. S. Woods, M.A., who read a Paper on its history.
After an examination had been made of the many :fine monuments
the Chmch contains, the party returned via Sandwich to Deal, where
PROCEEDI NGS, 1898. xlix
the Annual Dinner took place in St. George's Hall. The Earl
Stanhope presided, and was supported by the W orship£ul the Mayor,
the Rev. A. J . Pearman, W. H. Burch Rosher, Esq. and Mrs. Burch
Rosher, Alderman Cottew, the Rev. T. S. a.ud Mrs. Frampton,
R. Cooke, Esq., the Honorary Secretary and Mrs. George Payne,
and about fifty other ladies and gentlemen.
Dinner being concluded, the noble President was obliged to
leave in order to catch the t rain, having previously requested the
Mayor to take his pln.ce at the hen.cl of the table.
The u:rogress
was made to St. Margaret's-at-Cliffe, where luncheon was partaken
of at the hotel.
After luncheon the company proceeded to the Church, wlrnre
the Rev. G. M. Livett, Vicar of Wateringbury, gave an interesting
address on its architectural history. While this was being listened
to a thunderstorm passed over the immediate locality, which prevented
the company from leaving the Church for upwards of an
hour, and perhaps fortunately, as it gave Mr. Livett au opportunity
of doing full justice to this gem of Kentiah Churches.
