This annual report lists the name of the 73 current members: the president His Excellency Sir James Fergusson 12 'Honorary and Corresponding Members' and 60 ordinary members. The final paragraph of the short report will sound familiar to anyone who has served on a committee: 'The Council wish to impress upon members the necessity of paying their subscriptions punctually; during the past year out of sixty-seven ordinary members it appears only thirty-nine have paid their annual subscriptions'. These extremely small numbers let alone the passage of 150 or more years must account for the utmost rarity of this publication. <p>Provenance: Thomas Gill 1849-1923 the South Australian historian and bibliographer with his ownership signature on the front cover; later the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia South Australian Branch with its stamp ditto. 'Gill was also a governor of the Public Library Museum and Art Gallery of South Australia from 1896 until his death and a member of the Library Association of Australasia.

Gill was treasurer of the South Australian branch of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia from its inception in 1885 until his death.

His library was sold to the society for £300 as his will directed' but numerous items from his collection mainly duplicates of existing holdings in the RGSSA library were later sold.
