On the first of January, 1911, the Society's membership was 165. Of these 4 were benefactors, 19 were life members, 142 were annual members and one was a corresponding member. On January 1, 1912, the total membership was 203; bene factors, 4; life members, 22; annual members 176 and 1 corresponding member, a gain of 38. Two members have died during the past year, and one who died in 1908 has not before been mentioned. This was Benjamin F. Adams, who was of the firm of Adams Armstrong, grocers on Beacon street, near Coolidge Corner. He resided in Belmont, and though interested in Brookline affairs, did not attend any of our meetings. Col. Albert A. Clarke died July 16 at his summer home in Higl gate, Vermont. Colonel Clarke was a recent comer to Brookline, and had not taken any part in our Society.
