  The report was read at the Association’s July 19th, 1916 Plymouth meeting. The Committee recorded the death of Mr. Thomas Wainwright. Further, two stations were closed: Brandis Corner, where Sir Gerald Corbet, Bart., no longer resided; and Postbridge, Mr. Ellery A. Bennett having ceased to occupy Archerton House. Two new stations appear in the tables, Coplestone House, observer Miss M. Pope; and South Molton, observer Mr. Fred. Day, F.R.G.S. Anno 1915 in Devon was, on the whole a wet one. This report extract will (a) provide names of the Climate Committee members, and (b) a comprehensive list of the Stations at which readings were taken, as well as (c) the names of the observers.
