himself and of other ornithologists, was always listened to 

 with interest by his " brother Ibises." When the Club 

 celebrated its twenty-first anniversary in June last, it was 

 hoped that he would be present to receive an address from the 

 members, and a present of a silver Ibis in grateful recognition 

 of his long and valued services to the Club. Mr. W. L. Sclater, 

 in acknowledging the address, informed the meeting that 

 his father was unfortunately ill as the result of a carriage 

 accident, and it was with real sorrow that we learnt a few 

 days later that he had died on June 27th. Sclater's grim and 

 rugged face and his penetrating cry of "Order, Order" 

 will long remain in our memories. 



The hundred and eighty-eighth Meeting of the Club was held 

 at Pagani's Restaurant, 42-48 Great Portland Street, W., 

 on Wednesday, the 8th of October, 1913.
