YORKSHIRE Ornithology has sustained a heavy loss by the 
death of T. H. Nelson, which occurred at Harrogate on 
Sunday, November 5th. 
Mr. Nelson has for a great number of years occupied a 

foremost position among the Naturalists of Yorkshire. He 
was formerly an active member of the Yorkshire Naturalists’ 
Union, but of late, unsatisfactory health has considerably 
curtailed his field activities. The area of the Tees mouth 
has always been his happy hunting ground, and his records 
from this district have been numerous, interesting and valuable. 
It was on the Durham side of the Tees upon some shooting 
of his that the Reeve nested successfully a few years ago. 
He possessed a valuable collection of eggs and birds, most 
of the latter being obtained in the Tees mouth area.
