552 A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF [SOUTHWELL i 
his whole life in his native county. A love of natural history I 
developed in him very early, we are told, and as a boy all 
his available time out of school was spent in egg collecting, 
etc. In 1846 he entered the Lynn branch of Gurney’s (now 
Barclay’s) Bank, where his father was at the time chief 
cashier. In 1853 he began a correspondence with Alfred . 
Newton, which developed into a friendship terminated only 
by the death of the latter. In the same year he left the bank 
and joined his brother Charles in a confectionery business 
in London, but his health gave way and he returned to Lynn 
in 1866, and next year re-entered Gurney’s Bank in Norwich, 
which was henceforth his home. In 1868 he was elected 
on the Committee of the Norwich Museum, and in the follow- 
ing year the Norfolk and Norwich Naturalists’ Society was 
established. His papers in their Transactions are said to 
number nearly a hundred. He was Honorary Secretary of 
the society for some years, being elected President in 1879, 
and again in 1893. In 1872*he became F.Z.S., and in 1881 
M.B.O.U. He retired from the bank in 1896, and died at his 
house in Norwich on September 5, 1909. His wife pre- 
deceased him in 1903, but he left two daughters. 
In addition to his ornithological writings he published 
a work on the Seals and Whales of the British Seas (1881) 
and a number of papers on the same subject, on which he 
was an authority. He was a regular correspondent of the 
Zoologist from 1869 until the time of his death.
