APPENDIX C. 
An Outline of the Ornithology/ of Godalming, in the County of 
Surrey ; with brief Records of the Occurrence of some of 
the Rarer Birds. By Edward Newman. 
I HAVE introduced above a very faithful representation of 
Hatch, so long the residence of Mr. Kidd : it was here that he 
cultivated Ornithology so successfully; and 1 was at that time a 
very frequent visitor to his bird-room, and spent many of the 
happiest hours of my boyhood in receiving information in that 
much loved apartment. For many years every rare bird shot 
within twenty miles of Godalming was brought to Waring Kidd, 
at Hatch, and consequently the opportunity he possessed of ac- 
quiring an exact knowledge of the Ornithology of the district 
could not be surpassed, and has rarely been equalled.
