Dale (Chaeles W.), 1852-1906 
The subject of this notice, who was born in 1852, was 
the son of James Charles Dale, of Wootton Glanville (more 
generally called Glanville’s Wootton), Osehill, and Newland 
Manors in the county of Dorset. As an ornithologist he 
requires no special mention, the bird matter in the under- 
mentioned work being quite unimportant. The elder Dale, 
mentioned above, contributed a “ Catalogue of the Mam- 
malia, Birds, Reptiles, and Amphibians found in Dorsetshire ” 
to Neville Wood’s Naturalist (ii. pp. 171-83, 1837), as well 
as many notes or articles on various branches of natural 
history.

chapel, silk-thrower, appears to have been born in White- 
chapel in 1659. He was apprenticed for eight years to an 
apothecary, and commenced practising in 1686 at Braintree 
as a physician. In 1693 he produced his Pharmacologia , 
the first important systematic work on the subject, a Supple- 
ment following in 1705. He was the friend and executor 
of Ray and a correspondent of Sloane, and according to 
Britten was more eminent as a botanist than as an ornitho- 
logist. His herbarium, bequeathed to the Apothecaries’ 
Company, is now in the British Museum (Nat. Hist.). The
