British blue butterflies were always of interest, for he spent 

 probably more time over this group than over any other, and by hard 

 work in the field turned up many fine aberrations. Mention must 

 be made also of his joint discovery with Mr. T. H. L. Grosvenor of 

 the black form of Anthrocera irifolii in a Sussex locality which he 

 kept a secret till his death. 



Canon Charles Thomas Cruttwell, died on April 4th, aged 63. He 

 was not very well known to London entomologists, and although an 

 enthusiastic collector, especially of the "micro" Lepidoptera, he 

 did not find time to publish more than field notes, which appeared 

 chiefly in the pages of the " Entomologist's Monthly Magazine." 

 He was, however, a great scholar, and had he been a free man 

 would doubtless have left a more lasting legacy to science. 



William Alfred Rollason, died on April 23rd, aged 48. He 

 studied the Lepidoptera, the Hymenoptera-Aculeata and the 

 IchneumonidfB, and contributed papers to the " Entomologist's 

 Monthly Magazine " and the " Entomologist," 



Pieter Cornelius Tobias Snellen, died on March 29th, at the 

 advanced age of 77. His great work was " Vlinders van Nederland," 

 which, commenced in 1867, was continued through 15 years till 

 1882. He was one of the pioneers in the study of the neuration of 

 the Lepidoptera, and his great work contains constant references to 

 this structure. He also wrote many other papers, a number of 

 which have appeared in the " Tijdschrift voor Entomologie." 



Alexander Henry Clarke, died on July 25th, aged 72. He was 

 little known to the later school of entomologists, but was up till 

 near the time of his death a keen entomologist. He was a friend of the 

 late Mr. J. W. Tutt, and occasionally contributed notes to the 

 " Entomologist's Record." He had been a fellow of the Entomo- 

 logical Society for no less than 44 j-ears. 



Albert Harrison died on August 28th, in his 51st year. Many 

 of us cannot yet realise that we have lost one of our strongest 

 supporters, and one of our most genial colleagues. He joined this 

 Society in 1892, was president in 1899, and had served on the 

 council several times, always taking the liveliest interest in our 

 affairs. He had also served on the council of the Entomological 

 Society of London. The first meeting thati ever attended here was the 

 one when the late Mr. J. W. Tutt, after reading his presidential 

 address, handed the chair over to the new president, the late 

 Mr. Harrison. In the year that followed, while he was in office, 

 we all had an opportunity of appreciating the sterling qualities of 

 our departed colleague. He did not write much on entomology,
