SOME ADDITIONS TO 
THE NORWICH CASTLE-MUSEUM IN 1907. 
By Frank Leney. 
Read 31 st March , 1908. 
The African Antelopes previously mentioned in these notes 
as presented by Mr. Edward North Buxton have been mounted 
and grouped by Messrs. Rowland Ward, Ltd., in a large 
glazed case and form a remarkably effective exhibit in the 
Animal Room. The cost of the case and the charges for 
mounting and grouping the animals as in their natural habitat 
was generously defrayed by Mr. Geoffrey Fowell Buxton and 
a few local friends. Mr. E. N. Buxton has added to his 
“ game trophies ” in the Museum collection, mounted heads 
and horns of the White-bearded Knu ( Connochcetes taurinus 
albojubatus), Waller’s Gazelle ( Lithocranius walleri), and two 
Beisa Antelopes (Oryx beisa) from East Africa ; Rocky 
Mountain Goat ( Haploceros montanus) ; Big Horn Sheep 
(Ovis canadensis) from the Rocky Mountains ; Wapiti ( Cervus 
canadensis ) from Wyoming, North America ; and Mouflon 
( Ovis musimon ) from Sardinia ; skull and antlers of Carpathian 
Maral ( Cervus maral) from Galicia ; and antlers of Red Deer 
(Cervus elaphus) from Asia Minor and a peat bog in Ireland. 
A well mounted head of a Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) from 
Perthshire was presented by Mr. Eustace Gurney. An adult 
male Orang utan (Simia satyrus), presented by Dr. Chas. 
Hose of Sarawak, Borneo, has been mounted and placed on 
a “ nest ” or seat on a branch of a tree. Dr. Hose very 
kindly obtained a nest constructed by an Orang and native 
foliage so that the exhibit might be a correct representation 
of the habitat of these remarkable man-like apes.
