E-EV. John Adams. — The recent disastrous fire at the " Southern 

 Hotel," in the town of St. Louis, America, has caused the death 

 of the E-ev. John Adams, a Cornishman of considerable ability, 

 and one who has contributed several excellent papers to our 

 Journal. He was born at Morwenstow on 31st August, 1822, 

 and was the son of Mr. Henry Adams, who died at Kilkhampton, 

 1857. Having been educated at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, he won 

 the Newdegate prize in 1847, the subject of his poem being 

 " Prince Charles Edward after the battle of Culloden." He took 

 his B.A. degree in 1848, and the same year was ordained a deacon 

 by the Bishop of Oxford. In 1850 he took priest's orders, and 

 in 1852 his degree of M.A. His first parochial work was at 

 Tregony, where he was curate from 1848 to 1851. In the latter 

 year he removed to Grampound, where he remained until 1857. 

 In the following year the Bishop of Oxford presented him to the 

 living of Stock Cross, Berkshire. 



Mr. Adams's tastes as an antiquarian and geologist led him 

 to join several learned societies, and he sent several papers 

 to our publications. The first appeared in our report of 1855,
