House No. 44 On March 3, 1835, the Committee on Education reported on a petition. Report: The Boston Society of Natural History was formed in 1830 and incorporated in 1831. It studied Massachusetts resources and Massachusetts natural history, following the example of similar societies in Britain. The group had a museum in Boston. The Committee felt the Legislature needed to encourage the study of science so Massachusetts did not fall behind other states. Resolve: in favor of the Boston Society of Natural History, a payment of $300/year for five years. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of title originally held by the Massachusetts State Library).
