Robert McLachlan died at his residence, West 

 View, Lewisham, on the 23rd inst. 



We know that this announcement will be received 

 with sorrow throughout the Entomological World, and 

 especially in the circle of the readers of our Magazine, 

 but to us, as Editors, who have always looked up to 

 him as our Chief, his death is a loss which it will take 

 long to realize and still longer to repair. As the sad 

 news did not reach us till after this number was in print, 

 we must ask our readers to await further particulars, 

 until we can give a full obituary notice in our next. — Eds. 



May, 7904.
