Abstract
THE local arrangements for the Bradford meeting of the British Association in September next are now rapidly approaching completion. The railway companies have agreed to give the usual special facilities, both to visitors who come to Bradford from long distances, and to members resident in Yorkshire who travel to and fro every day. Those persons who attend the meeting can obtain a return ticket from nearly all the railway companies at a fare and a quarter, provided they present to the booking-clerk a certificate, which can be obtained on application to the local office at 5, Forster Square. Any Members or Associates visiting Bradford day by day, and staying in places within fifty miles of the city, can obtain return tickets at the single fare on presenting their card of membership to the booking-clerk in Bradford. The following railway companies have entered into this arrangement:—the Caledonian, the Great Eastern, the Great Central, the Great Northern, the Great Western, Lancs. and Yorks, London, Brighton and South Coast, London and North Western, London and South Western, Midland, North British, North Eastern, South Eastern, Chatham and Dover, and the other companies belonging to the Associated Railways.
