Ottawa Field-Naturalists' Club, 1879 1880: Transactions No; 1 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Ottawa Field-Naturalists' Club, 1879 1880: Transactions No; 1
The next important item to mention in the history of the Club is the exceptionally fine exhibit which they sent to the Dominion Exhibition, when the following prizes were taken - In the Botanical Section, all the prizes offered: 'the first, a silver medal and $8, being taken by the First vice-president; the second, 354, by the Secretary. In the Entomological Section, Mr. Harrington took the second prize of $10; the first, a gold medal, being awarded to the Entomological Society of Ontario. A well - established institution of many years' standing. Besides the above, a bronze medal, an extra prize, was awarded to Mr 'gilbert Heron for a beautiful collection of land and fresh-water shells. The finest collection exhibited in the name of the Club, however, was Dr. J. A. Grant's case of twelve unique fossils, every one of which was of unusual interest; these were not entered for a prize, but were highly commended by the judges. Another beautiful collection was one of native birds' eggs, exhibited by Mr. W. L. Scott. This also obtained a special mention by the judges.
