As its title indicates, it is simply a Supplement to the General Register published in 1902. The Committee ap- pointed by the Council began its work immediately on its appointment in the hope that the work would be finished and the book distributed among the State Societies by early summer ; a hope that has not been realized because of long delays on the part of a few State Secretaries in transmitting to the Committee desired information. Indeed, the first half of the last month of summer had passed before all of the reports had been received. A supplement is in many respects an uninteresting and unsatisfactory book to edit; but the Committee trusts that the volume it now places in the hands of the members of the Society will meet the object sought in the action of the Council, viz. : to furnish the names of those who have joined the Society since the Register was issued, together with accompanying genealogical data. An alphabetical list of all members of the Society, July 1, 1906, will, it is thought, give additional interest and value to the book. The Committee takes this opportunity of urging early action by the Society towards the publication of a new General Register at some future date, to be fixed suffi- ciently long in advance to enable the Secretaries and Regis- trars of State Societies to prepare their lists of members carefully and without haste, thus insuring an accuracy which is not only desirable but most essential to a book of this character, but which the Committee is compelled to think has not yet been attained. A glance at the Corrigenda at the end of this volume will tend to confirm the Committee's opinion. Presuming that the Secretaries and Registrars who fur- nished the lists of members and their lines of descent were best qualified to correct their work as it went through the press, the opportunity for so doing was extended to them, and with one or two exceptions was accepted. Therefore, as the Committee has been relieved of this responsibility, for whatever degree of accuracy the lists of each Society pos- sess credit should be given to the Secretary or Registrar of that Society. To all those Secretaries and Registrars who promptly sent in their reports, and who have cheerfully responded to our not infrequent inquiries, the Committee returns its hearty thanks, and especially to those who have so kindly added to the value of the Supplement by furnishing the seals of their Societies, and pictures of memorials of important events in colonial history. The Committee would also gratefully acknowledge the kindness of his Honor, Chief Justice Aiken of Massachusetts, " Forts " at Greenfield Heath for the pictures of the Old and ; and of Miss Annie B. Jennings, of New York, and Mr. Richard A. Perry, of Southport, Conn., for their interest in securing for the Supplement the picture of the monument commemorating the Great Swamp Fight in Fairfield, Conn. A. J. C. Sowdon. Charles L. Hutchins.
