Abstract

Mr. J. W. Beattie read some "Notes on a recent trip to the Hartz
Mountains," descriptive of a photographic tour through the bush from
Geeveston to the summit of the mountains. The paper was elaborately
illustrated by lantern slides, manipulated by Mr. Nat Oldham, and
the audience was given an excellent, interesting, and general idea of
the scenery, lake and mountain, bush and plain.
