magistrate, an occupant of many local offices, and a Member of 
Parliament. That career may be summed up in a single trite 
quotation: ‘‘There was nearly nothing that he did not touch, 
and whatever he touched he adorned.” 
JuLES BourGeors became a Fellow in 1904. He died within 
the present Session, but at what age, and on what exact day, 
I am unable to state. He was the chief authority on a 
Coleopterous group—the Lycidae ; and I hear that he possessed 
an important collection of these insects (containing many 
(“types”), which he has bequeathed to the Paris Museum. 
He resided, I believe, in Alsace-Lorraine. 
Frank Wray Terry, born at Battersea on February 14th, 
1877, became a Fellow in 1910, and died at New York on 
November 8th, 1911. 
The life which has closed so prematurely was full of the 
brightest promise ; a life surely worth living, and, in the 
strictest sense of the term, an exemplary life. 
Commencing in 1892, with his foot, as it were, on the 
lowest step of the ladder, as a boy employed in the Insect 
Room of the Natural History Museum, he soon became an 
expert in the preparation and mounting of objects, and ac- 
quired by degrees a good general knowledge of Entomology 
and other branches of Natural History. Thus he fitted him- 
self to discharge the duties involved in accepting an opportunity 
which presently offered itself. In 1902, together with our 
late Fellow Mr. Kirkaldy, he was engaged by the Sugar- 
Planters’ Association of Hawaii to investigate the life-history 
of various insect-pests. His work was performed with ability, 
zeal, and success, and to all appearance he seemed destined to 
take a foremost rank among economic entomologists, After 
eight years thus spent, he revisited England on leave; but he 
was impatient, though feeling far from well, to resume his task ; 
and it was on his way back to Hawaii that the end came. 
Such a career must recall the old saying, not surely a whole 
truth, but at least a half truth, “Those whom the gods love 
die young.” 
Among entomological workers outside our own Society who 
have passed away since our last Annual Meeting, I can only
