According to Science , “Mr. W. Hague Harrington, one of the best known of the 
older Canadian entomologists, died on March 13 at Ottawa, Canada, at the age of 
sixty-six years. Mr. Harrington was born in Nova Scotia, and entered the federal 
civil service at Ottawa in November, 1870, eventually reaching the rank of superin¬ 
tendent of the Savings Bank Branch. He was one of the founders of the Ottawa. 
Field Naturalists’ Club, and at one time was president of the Entomological Society 
of Ontario. In 1894, he was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. For 
many years his main interest in life was entomology, and he brought together a large 
collection of Canadian Coleoptera and Hymenoptera. He was a systematist of 
recognized standing, and was probably the highest authority on Hymenoptera in 
the Dominion of Canada. He was a striking example of that class of men who have 
done pioneer work in natural history in Canada and the United States, while pursuing 
this work as a hobby rather than as a vocation.”
