 Waterloo or the forest of Soignes. Dr. Skinner writes, "On 

 Wednesday, the 3rd, I spent the afternoon tramping over the 

 field of Waterloo with some of the Belgian entomologists and 

 enjoyed the country perhaps more than the historical associa- 

 tions. M. Kerremans, the eminent Buprestidist, is an author- 

 ity on Waterloo and he gave the history and acted as chief 

 guide," and of the Musee du Congo, which he visited on anoth- 

 er day, "It is a very fine display of everything relating to the 

 trade, industries and natural history of the Congo. They have 

 twenty-five gorillas and six okapis and two mounted skeletons 

 of the latter."
