The Subscription to the Society, which constitutes membership, is £1
1_s._ a year for the ORIGINAL SERIES, and £1 1_s._ for the EXTRA SERIES,
due in advance on the 1st of JANUARY, and should be paid by Cheque,
Postal Order, or Money-Order, crost ‘Union Bank of London,’ to the
Hon. Secretary, W. A. DALZIEL, Esq., 67, Victoria Rd., Finsbury Park,
London, N. Members who want their Texts posted to them, must add to their
prepaid Subscriptions 1_s._ for the Original Series, and 1_s._ for the
Extra Series, yearly. The Society’s Texts are also sold separately at
the prices put after them in the Lists; but Members can get back-Texts
at one-third less than the List-prices by sending the cash for them in
advance to the Hon. Secretary.
☞ The Society intends to complete, as soon as its funds will allow, the
Reprints of its out-of-print Texts of the year 1866, and also of nos. 20,
26 and 33. Prof. Skeat has finisht _Partenay_; Dr. McKnight of Ohio _King
Horn_ and _Floris and Blancheflour_; and Dr. Furnivall his _Political,
Religious and Love Poems_ and _Myrc’s Duties of a Parish Priest_. Dr.
Otto Glauning has undertaken _Seinte Marherete_; and Dr. Furnivall has
_Hali Meidenhad_ in type. As the cost of these Reprints, if they were
not needed, would have been devoted to fresh Texts, the Reprints will
be sent to all Members in lieu of such Texts. Though called ‘Reprints,’
these books are new editions, generally with valuable additions, a fact
not noticed by a few careless receivers of them, who have complained
that they already had the volumes. As the Society’s copies of the
_Facsimile of the Epinal MS._ issued as an Extra Volume in 1883 are
exhausted, Mr. J. H. Hessels, M.A., of St. John’s Coll., Cambridge, has
kindly undertaken an edition of the MS. for the Society. This will be
substituted for the Facsimile as an 1883 book, but will be also issued to
all the present Members.
