ADDITIONAL NOTE ON A FRAGMENT OF THE ADAPA-LEGEND. Dr. Bezold's note in the Zeitschrift für Assyriologie (IX, 4, p. 405), so far as it concerns myself, demands just so much of an answer as is conveyed by the following statement of facts. My note was in the printer's hands on the 18th of May, 1894; the first proof was corrected and returned before the end of May, and the second in the first week in June. The first part of the ninth volume of the Zeitschrift, containing Dr. Bezold's article, was sent to me by my bookseller on the 15th of June, when the separate copies of my note had already begun to be printed off. These facts are of themselves sufficient to exhibit the character of Dr. Bezold's assumption that I had seen his article, though I did not refer to it; indeed it would seem that "es musz hier ein Missverständniss vorliegen." S. ARTHUR STRONG. The next Meeting of the Society will be held at 37. Great Russell Street, Bloomsbury, W.C., on Tuesday, 5th February, 1895, at 8 p.m., when the following Paper will be read: :- Rev.
