Great Britain, his chief interest lay, and his most enduring work was 

 done. All future students of the subject will find a mass of material 

 ready to their hand, which only a long life and unwearied perseverance 

 and sound judgment could have amassed or digested. In the last three 

 years he had filled the office of President of the Wiltshire Archaeological 

 and Natural History Society, and only a fortnight before his death had 

 been present at the Society's meeting at Malmesbury and had taken 

 part in the excursions of the meeting. In the subjects which he had 

 made his own his stores of knowledge were always at the service of the 

 Society. In the long list of Presidents few, if any, have been more 

 distinguished, whilst to those who were privileged to know him per- 

 sonally, the gentleness and unassuming modesty of his demeanour, 

 together with his unfailing courtesy and kindness to all who came in 

 contact with him, endeared him in no ordinary measure. A list of his 

 writings is given below.
