Mr. Claude Morley (before quoted) says that it is “a marvellous 
collection for one man to compile, and is especially complete in 
the determination of species,” . . . . “ the Ichneumons 
represent, if not the most numerous, at all events the best arranged 
and most fully-named collection in Britain, speaking eloquently of 
hours of close and untiring study.” 
But it was not alone as a Naturalist that Bridgman took 
a prominent position; he was greatly distinguished as a Freemason, 
and the founder of a Lodge named after himself ; he was an Hon. 
Major of Volunteers, for two years the Champion Shot of the 
County, and was one of the first Officers to receive the Long 
Service Decoration. Of late years he was troubled with a bronchial 
affection, and linding relief from the sea-air, turned his attention to 
sea-fishing, in which he soon excelled, as in most other things ; 
in fact, the distinguishing features in all he undertook were his 
thoroughness and the generous spirit in which he gave others the 
benefit of his experience and researches. — T. S.
