Horace Bolingbroke Woodward was elected an Honorary Member of 

 the Club in 1902, in recognition of the useful work he had done in geology, 

 especially in connection with the Jurassic rocks. His three volumes on 

 " The Jurassic Rocks of Britain " are a monument of industry, and in- 

 valuable to all workers on the rocks to which they refer. To those more 

 generally interested in geology his name will be familiar as the author of 

 the well-known work on " The Geology of England and Wales." 



The value of his work was recognized by the Geological Society in the 

 successive awards of the Murchison Geological Fund in 1885, the Murchison 

 Medal in 1897, and the Wollaston Medal in 1909. Mr Horace Woodward was 

 President of the Geologists' Association 1893-4.
