Dr. Symonds was an enthusiastic naturalist and a most 

 hospitable host: one of his greatest delights was to show 

 visitors the beauties and bird-life of the Valsch River, which 

 almost encircles Kroonstad. 



He will be greatly missed, not only by the S.A.O.U. I)ut 

 by the Transvaal Museum and Zoo, to which institutions h*^ 

 was a frequent and valued contributor. 



The greatest sympathy is extended to his wife and 

 five daughters in their .sad bereavement. A. H.
