GENERAL INDEX TO THE TRANSACTIONS OF THE VICTORIA INSTITUTE. A GENERAL INDEX to the first forty-three volumes of the Journal of Transactions of the Institute (No. I, 1865, to No. XLIII, 1911), arranged alphabetically under both the names of the Authors and the Subjects, was issued with volume XLIV, and repeated with the two subsequent volumes. The Index is not repeated in the present volume, which is already a large one, as it appears scarcely necessary to do so every year, but it will be repeated, enlarged and brought up to date, in a subsequent volume. In the meantime, the present General Index can be obtained from the Secretary in separate form, bound in cloth, for one shilling the copy. CONTENTS OF THE LAST FOUR VOLUMES. VOL. XLIV.
