[[underlined]]Special work accomplished.[[/underlined]]

Special work done during November consisted chiefly in the preparation of the unfinished part of the hand-book on humming-birds.

Nearly a week was necessarily given to the annual session of the American Ornithologists' Union, the bird-gallery being the "headquarters" of the members during their stay in Washington.  A number of committee meetings were there held, and a large amount of work, of great importance to ornithology, transacted there.
