.All who attended the Jubilee Meeting of the Entomological 

 SocietN' of Ontario in August, 1913. rtnumler, among other 

 pleasant recollections of tha.t meeting, the pleasure which the 

 presence of Mr. Meade- Waldo occasioned: Mr. Meade-Waldo 

 attended the meeting as a representative of the British Museum 

 of Natural History. To all those and to his other friends in Oanada 

 his untimely death in March w-ll come as a shock. He had a 

 peculiarly winning manner and a deep lo\e not only of the science 

 to which he chietK devoted himself, but to nature generally, as 

 he was a keen ornithologist and an ardent advocate for the preserva- 

 tion of wild life. His enthusiasm was very marked during the 

 excursion we made at the time of the meeting to Orimsby, from 

 which excursion he arrived home not only with his hands full, 

 but. in the absence of a third prehensile organ, carr>ing in his 

 mouth a twig bearing a Sphinx cater[)illar. 



iVIr. Meade-Waldo was born in Januar\-, 1884, and after 

 being educated at Eton and Magdalen College. Oxford, he visited 

 the East, including the Federated Malay States and Borneo. 

 In 1900 he was appointed to the Entomological Department of 

 the British Museum. Natural History, where at the time of his 

 death he had charge of the Hymenoptera. In this group he had 

 already carried out \aluable and much-needed work, and his 

 death will be a severe less not only to British entomology, but to 

 a still wider body of entomologists who were following his promising 

 career with great expectations.
