of the past. Besides many papers contributed to the Geological 

 Society, Carpenter was joint author with Mr. E. Etheridge, jun., of 

 the Catalogue of the Blastoidea in the British Museum ; and the 

 last number of the Journal of the Linntean Society, published on the 

 day of his funeral, contains a contribution to the Morphology of the 

 Cystidea of the very highest importance (see aniea, p. 135). 



Carpenter's enthusiasm made hira a keen controversialist, but his 

 love of truth kept him open to every argument. He may have 

 sacrificed brevity to exhaustiveness, but his conscientiousness has 

 given to all his work the highest reputation for accuracy. These 

 are the virtues of the man of science, but to them he added a 

 kindness of heart and a bright joyousness of nature that leave us 

 doubtful whether we have lost more in the teacher or in the friend. 



Lists of Dr. P. H. Carpenter's papers, some written in conjunction 

 with Mr. E. Etheridge, jun., are given in his two Challenger 

 Reports, and in the Catalogue of the Blastoidea in the British 

 Museum. To these the following list is supplementary.

Dr. Carpenter also contributed an admirable popular account of 

 the Echinoderms to Cassell's Natural History (1883), and was 

 largely responsible for the section on the same group in Nicholson 

 and Lydekker's Paleeontology (1889). E. A. B. 



Henky Nottidge Moseley, LL.D., F.R.S., who, after a protracted 

 illness, died on the 10th of November last, at the age of 46, was well 

 known as a "Challenger" Naturalist, and as Linaci'e Professor of Com- 

 parative Anatomy at Oxford. That part of his published work of 

 most interest to the palaeontologist related to the Hydrocorallin^, 

 Alcyonaria and Madreporaria. But throughout his work, especially 

 in his capacity as teacher, he was always alive to the value of fossils, 

 and lost uo opportunity^ of impressing on his pupils the importance
