These are now well advanced, and will, it is hoped, be issued in the course of the autumn.

Of the several works in preparation—­a list of which will be found in the Advertisement at the end of Vol.  XXX—­it is unnecessary to speak here.

The Society will, however, be interested to learn that copies have been found of the Fighting Instructions of Hawke and Rodney.  These were described at some length by Mr. Julian S. Corbett in the Times of December 19, and, by the kind permission of the owner, Mr. Pritchard, will be edited for the Society by Mr. Corbett, and issued—­probably next year—­either as a separate volume or included in a volume of the Miscellany.

The Balance Sheet is appended.
