 74th year, at his residence, the Manor

 some years he was gardener at Stock- 

 field Park, Wetherby, and subsequent- 

 ly he entered the service of Messrs. 

 J. Backhouse & Son, York, as a tem- 

 porary hand, and later he became one 

 of the regular staff, and subsequently 

 he became landscape gardener to the 

 firm, laying out or remodeling many 

 old gardens in the county. He was 

 among the first to take orchids in 

 bloom to the famous Stevens' Auction 

 Rooms, Covent Gardens.

 an enthusiastic cultivator of roses

 tor at shows in Hampshire, Sussex 

 and adjoining counties. The deceased

 incurved chrysanthemums.

 years great success attended the la- 

 bors of the firm in crossing and hy- 

 bridizing various species of orchids. 

 a work in which the late Mr. McBean 

 was greatly interested.
