  cated 
  other 
  papers 
  on 
  the 
  Natural 
  History 
  of 
  Ireland. 
  His 
  investiga- 
  

   tions 
  on 
  the 
  Zoology 
  of 
  Ireland 
  were 
  intended 
  by 
  him 
  to 
  be 
  published 
  

   as 
  a 
  portion 
  of 
  a 
  great 
  work 
  on 
  the 
  Natural 
  History 
  of 
  that 
  island, 
  of 
  

   which 
  only 
  the 
  first 
  part 
  — 
  'The 
  Birds 
  of 
  Ireland' 
  — 
  has 
  yet 
  been 
  

   published 
  ; 
  but 
  he 
  had 
  made 
  arrangements 
  for 
  the 
  pubhcation 
  of 
  his 
  

   MSS. 
  in 
  the 
  event 
  of 
  his 
  death, 
  so 
  that 
  no 
  further 
  delay 
  than 
  is 
  una- 
  

   voidable 
  will 
  occur 
  in 
  the 
  publication 
  of 
  the 
  remaining 
  volumes. 
  As 
  

   regards 
  the 
  annulose 
  animals, 
  he 
  had 
  paid 
  great 
  attention 
  to 
  the 
  Crus- 
  

   tacea, 
  as 
  may 
  be 
  seen 
  in 
  almost 
  every 
  page 
  of 
  Professor 
  Bell's 
  work 
  

   on 
  the 
  subject 
  ; 
  and 
  two 
  days 
  only 
  previous 
  to 
  his 
  death, 
  I 
  had 
  an 
  in- 
  

   terview 
  with 
  him 
  relative 
  to 
  the 
  investigation 
  and 
  publication 
  of 
  his 
  

   collection 
  of 
  Edriophthalmatous 
  Crustacea. 
  He 
  died 
  in 
  the 
  forty- 
  

   seventh 
  year 
  of 
  his 
  age. 
  

  

  During 
  the 
  past 
  year, 
  also, 
  Thomas 
  Norris, 
  Esq., 
  of 
  Redvales, 
  near 
  

   Bury, 
  Lancashire, 
  the 
  possessor 
  of 
  a 
  splendid 
  collection 
  of 
  exotic 
  

   insects, 
  has 
  departed 
  this 
  life. 
  He 
  was 
  an 
  early 
  member 
  of 
  our 
  

   Society. 
  

  

  I 
  am 
  sorry 
  to 
  have 
  to 
  state 
  also, 
  that 
  Mr. 
  Swanzy, 
  a 
  gentleman 
  by 
  

   whom 
  many 
  interesting 
  insects 
  have 
  been 
  collected 
  in 
  tropical 
  Western 
  

   Africa, 
  has 
  been 
  lost 
  by 
  shipwreck, 
  the 
  vessel 
  in 
  which 
  he 
  was 
  

   making 
  the 
  outward 
  bound 
  passage 
  having 
  foundered 
  in 
  the 
  Downs 
  

   during 
  the 
  terrific 
  gales 
  of 
  last 
  August.
