I have great pleasure on seconding the motion, and giving honour to whom honour is due, as Mr Cashen has done in the proposition with reference to the lecturer, who has enlightened us this evening on the sayings and customs of our forefathers, inhabitants of Man. A better man for the purpose could not have been got, a genuine Manxman, a man of learning and knowledge of the subject, won by careful observance and study, and with extraordinary talent for delineation of character. I heartily agree to accord him the best thanks of this meeting.
