Mr. Hugh Jones was a liberal donor to the Museum. Among his gifts 

 may be mentioned a series of Hyrax from Palestine, a series of small 

 Mammals collected in Wyoming, and of heads and horns of large game 

 shot by himself during his various excursions to the Himalayas, 

 Cachmere, and Thibet, where he made numerous graphic sketches of 

 the scenes he visited and the game he met with. These sketches have 

 been copied and printed, and a set has been given for use in the
