The custodian of musical instruments, Mr. Edwin H. Hawley, 

 died on April 23, after several months' illness. He had been con- 

 nected with this work since 1885, when he was interested in the 

 subject of music by the late Dr. G. Brown Goode. Mr. Hawley was 

 a most thorough and conscientious worker and had at the time of his 

 death accumulated the greatest collection of data on musical instru- 

 ments that exists. He was widely known and consulted by authori- 

 ties on music everywhere.
