OHIO STATE ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTOR-
ICAL SOCIETY.
REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FOR
THE YEAR
ENDING FEBRUARY 19, 1888.
To the Members:
The annual reports of the Treasurer and
the Secretary
have been by them submitted to this
Committee, which,
in the absence of a meeting of the
Trustees, is authorized
to act upon them. We have examined
them, find them
correct and approve and recommend them
to your careful
attention.
From the Treasurer's report you will
learn that at the
close of the year, 297 names (inclusive
of those who have
advanced their fees for the coming
year,) are on the roll
of active members.
During the year the following members
deceased:
Prof. S. F. Baird, of Washington City,
August 19, 1887.
Judge Silas H. Wright, of Lancaster,
November 18, 1887.
Hon. V. B. Horton, of Pomeroy, January
14, 1888.
The list of members from the date of
organization to
the close of this year will be
published in the March
QUARTERLY. Many of these pay their
annual dues by
donations of valuable articles to the
museum, or of valuable
works to the library. Among the latter
should be men-
tioned Mrs. Mary De Renne, of Georgia,
whose donation
of two rare works was so valuable, we
felt such gifts should
be recognized in an honoary membership.
We hope the Secretary, on whom the
burden of the
work falls, will be aided by every
member of the society.
When he, and the members of the
Editorial Committee,
especially its chairman, do so much for
the society free,
they should be encouraged and upheld by
every one
interested in the preservation of our
history. In no way
384

Committee. 385
can this be done so effectually as by
aiding to increase the
active and life membership. Each member
is requested
to forward to the Secretary the names
and addresses of
those whom you would recommend for
membership.
With increased membership the
association will be in
position to publish substantial volumes
of papers every
year, as well as to add constantly to
its publication fund.
From life-membership fees and other
sources the associa-
tion has now an annual income fund of
some $1,200, as
appears in the Treasurer's report.
It is earnestly hoped that members have
not taken a
strictly mercantile view of their
membership of the society.
In the first years of the society it
was not possible to
render a material quid pro quo for membership fees, and at
the same time establish a Publication
Fund. " The society
has accomplished results that cannot be
estimated by any
pecuniary standard of value. It has
encouraged original
research by its meetings and
publications; it has brought
historical students and specialists
together; it has caused
a more frequent exchange of ideas among
them; and it
has awakened greater public interest in
historical studies."
The present enthusiasm for history in
Ohio is in no small
degree the fruit of the Ohio Historical
Society.
We confidently appeal to every member
to aid in this
effort. We should have one thousand members
in this
society. By united effort we can secure
them. Will not
each one help?

REPORT OF THE SECRETARY FOR THE YEAR ENDING
FEBRUARY 19, 1888.
To the Executive Committee:
The year of this Society just closed has
been one of
very satisfactory progress. We have been
able to do what
we could not do in the preceding two
years of our growth;
viz., establish a publication, whose
merit grows with itself,
and through which we are now able to
give to our mem-
bers a substantial return for their
money. Heretofore we
have been obliged to be content that we
were establishing
a Society, which in time would be of
great good to the
citizens of our State and country. That
this is apparent
is shown by the large and much varied
correspondence, as
evinced by the postage item in my list
of expenses. The
labor has not relaxed in any case; but
my duties elsewhere,
from which I derive my support, has
necessitated the em-
ployment of considerable clerk hire. By
this means, only,
can the work, necessary to the success
of the Society, be
accomplished now. I am glad to be so
situated that I can
carry forward the legitimate work free
of all expense to
the income. I trust this can be
continued; thus enabling
the Society to pursue this line of
policy, and render a sub-
stantial return for the fees of its
members,
I shall endeavor during the coming year
to increase our
Life Membership, or endowment fund. I
feel assured we
can lay the foundation for such a fund
now -in this, our
first Centennial year-which will in the
near future yield
an annual income sufficient to defray
the annual expenses.
Other societies, old in years, have
struggled long to reach
the condition of the Ohio Society, whose
roll of active
membership is now exceeded by few other
State societies
in America.
Donations of books, magazines, papers,
manuscripts,
etc all that constitute a library
devoted to the preserva-
tion of history, are constantly offered,
which for the present
must be kept in personal libraries of
the officers till a safe
place is provided for them. The same may
be said of the
Reports of Secretary and Treasurer. 387
museum. There is no field in the world so rich in arch-
Geology and prehistoric and historic articles as Ohio,
and
could the Society but provide a place of safety,
accessible,
on reasonable terms, to the public, it would quickly be
filled by the finest State collection in America. Can
not
the members assist to reach this result? United action
will produce wonderful results, and I trust my efforts
will
be seconded by each member, who, by securing a few
additional members, can materially aid to reach the
desired
end. I trust
I shall have the continued co-operation of all
the members, and can not close without expressing my
thanks to those who have upheld my hands by words of
kindness and by heartily and kindly encouraging me in
the work of the Society.

the close of this year will be
published in the March
QUARTERLY. Many of these pay their
annual dues by
donations of valuable articles to the
museum, or of valuable
works to the library. Among the latter
should be men-
tioned Mrs. Mary De Renne, of Georgia,
whose donation
of two rare works was so valuable, we
felt such gifts should
be recognized in an honoary membership.
We hope the Secretary, on whom the
burden of the
work falls, will be aided by every
member of the society.
When he, and the members of the
Editorial Committee,
especially its chairman, do so much for
the society free,
they should be encouraged and upheld by
every one
interested in the preservation of our
history. In no way
