6. Garrod's collected Papers. 



[In Memoriam. The collected Scieutific Papers of tlie late Alfred 

 Henry Garrod, M.A., F.Pi.S. Edited, with a Biogi-aphical Memoir of the 

 Author, by W. A. Forbes, B.A. 8vo. London: 1881.] 



No more appropriate memorial, we believe, could have 

 been made of our much-lameuted fellow-worker than the 

 republication of his writings in a collected form. Their value 

 to the working ornithologist can scarcely be exaggerated ; and 

 it is most convenient to have them ready for reference in a 

 handy volume. The biographical notice and ]Mr, Herkomer's 

 etching will make the work still more acceptable to Garrod^s 

 numerous friends. The volume seems to have been most 

 carefully prepared and edited by his successor in the Zoolo- 

 gical Society^s prosectorship.
