C. E. BROOME. 
British Mycology has suffered another severe loss by the death 
of Christopher Edmund Broome, M.A., of Batheaston, for many 
years associated with the Rev. M. J. Berkeley in the production of 
numerous contributions to the Linnean Society and the Annals of 
Natural History. Although ten years the junior of the latter, and 
apparently more active and vigorous, yet his friends have not failed 
to observe a gradual decline during the past twelve months, which 
has somewhat suddenly come to a fatal termination. His quiet 
unassuming manners, his extreme modesty in all scientific matters, 
and his universal kindness and geniality, endeared him to all who 
knew him. 
Kalchbrenner. — The Rev. Charles Kalchbrenner, the amiable 
and accomplished Hungarian Mycologist, died recently at the age 
of 7 9 years.
