    were made. Dr. Venn, the Vice-President, presented each guest with a copy of his life of Caius. At the Harveian dinner, on October 18th, the Master and several of the Fellows of Gonville and Caius College were the guests of this College. As a permanent memorial of these mutual expressions of goodwill, the College has presented to the Master and Fellows of Gonville and Caius College, a copy of the portrait of Glisson, the original of which hangs in our reading-room. The Harveian Librarian and Sir W. Allchin, at my request, conveyed this picture to Gonville and Caius College, and have reported to us the grateful thanks of the Master and Fellows. In the edition of Caius' works, which is to be brought out by the two Colleges jointly, will appear the first book of the annals of our College, written by John Caius. The original of these annals in Caius’ own handwriting is in our possession. FINANCE. Conjoint Finance for 1910, and building of new Hall. Receipts show a decrease, as compared with 1909, of .£1,659 iis/Sd., mainly due to postponed diploma fees from, and rejections of, university candidates ; but due also, in less measure, to a reduction in number of university candidates. The number of candidates entering for the conjoint examinations is fairly well maintained. In Expenditure there is a decrease, as compared with 1909, of £2,225 16s. in spite of an extra expenditure of £186 13s. 76., in connection with the site of the new Examination Hall. The amount divisible between the two Colleges, there- fore, shows an increase (as compared with 1909) of £566 4s. 4d.
