CHARLES JAMES WarTkKINs died on May 27th. He was born 
at Lightpill, near Nailsworth, in July 1846. For many years 
he resided at Painswick, but quite recently he removed to 
Watledge, Nailsworth, and it was here that he underwent an 
operation which culminated in his death. He was a pin 
manufacturer, and his father was one of the earliest to supply 
entomological pins. His business did not leave him a great 
deal of spare time, but what he had he devoted to Natural 
History, and he was always ready to help any one who applied 
to him for information. The Gloucestershire portion of the 
Victoria County Histories owes much to him, as he collected 
and supplied many details for that work. He was a good all- 
round naturalist, including geology and botany in his studies, 
and as regards insects he was noted for his knowledge of 
Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera and Hemiptera. He 
became a Fellow of this Society in 1900. 
Wixtiam CuristorHer Boyp died on September 18th. He 
was well known as a Lepidopterist, and although he was the 
head of the firm of Messrs. J. & C. Boyd, Manchester 
Warehousemen, of Friday Street, E.C., which must have left 
him little leisure, he nevertheless was a frequent contributor 
to the Entomological Monthly Magazine, making a study of 
the Microlepidoptera as well as the larger species. Coleophora 
potentille was new to science when he discovered it, and he 
added other species to our British list. He was a Fellow of 
this Society from 1867 to 1893. 
JoHN Harrison died on July 11th, aged 73. He resided 
at Barnsley, and was well known in the North of England as 
a Lepidopterist, and was an enthusiastic collector, but chiefly 
in his native county. He was one of the founders of the 
Barnsley Naturalists’ Society in 1867, and lived to see it 
become one of the most flourishing societies in South York- 
shire. He was elected a Fellow of our Society in 1889. 
Martin Jacospy died on December 24th. He was born at 
Altona, near Hamburg, in 1842, and came to Manchester at 
the age of twenty, and had since made England his home. At 
first he was in Hallé’s band, then in London at the Royal 
Italian Opera, but from his earliest days he took an interest 
in Natural History. He joined this Society in 1886, and was
