June 20th. — The Old Norwegian Speculum Regale. By Prof. Kuno Meyer.
Armenian Folk-Lore. By Prof. M. Tcheraz.
Besides the more special Congress devoted to Folk-lore at Chicago in July, the Anthropological Congress of September had a section devoted to Folk-lore, the organisation of which was entrusted to the capable hands of Messrs. W. W. Newell and F. Boas.
The section of county Folk-lore relating to Suffolk, and compiled by Lady Camilla Gurdon, will be issued at once to members of the Folk-lore Society. Mr. E. Clodd contributes a Preface, pointing out the interest and importance of the county collection.
The Report on the Ethnographic Survey of the British Isles, presented at the Nottingham meeting of the British Association, contained a section dealing with Folk-lore, which is thus recognised as one of the means of ethnographic research.
The volume of translation of the mythical portions of Saxo Grammaticus, translated by Mr. O. Elton and introduced by Mr. F. York Powell, is almost through the press, and will be issued to the Society as the volume for 1893.
Mr. W. W. Newell has been for some time collecting the English Folk-tales that are still current in the United States. It is anticipated that his collection will be published during the course of 1894.
Papers and other communications for the next number of Folk-Lore must be sent to the Office, 270, Strand, on or before November 1, 1893.
