Baron von Hiigel is the son of the celebrated Baron Carl von Hiigel, 

 who wrote the well-known work of travel, " Kaschmir und das Reich der 

 Siek," 1840-1848. 



The donations to the British Museum were from his collection of 

 British birds which the young Baron made before he went out to the Fiji 

 Islands and New Zealand. Some of the specimens which he gave to the 

 Museum were of great intrinsic value.
