Abstract

THE HON. WALTER B. D. MANTELL, F.G.S.—"We regret to record the loss of this excellent naturalist and geologist, who died at Wellington, New Zealand, September 7th, 1895, in his 75th year. He was the eldest son of the well-known geologist, Dr. G. A. Mantell, F.E.S., and settled in New Zealand in 1840, where he was for years a member of the Colonial Government. We hope to give a fuller notice of his work later on.
