Mr. W. C. Borlase, M.P.:^*

I venture to make a suggestion. The object of the Society to be formed is "to enlighten and instruct the people." I think nothing has done more to enlighten and instruct the people upon this subject than the admirable lectures of Professor Seeley. My suggestion is that one of the first works the Society should take in hand is to print and circulate these lectures, if it could be arranged, in a cheap and popular form, both in England and her Colonies. (Hear, hear.) I doubt whether there are very many present to-day who have not read and benefited by those lectures.
