 Obituary. 187

one felt how grand was this energetic, masterful mind, this kindly, generous heart, who, in collecting objects of art and antiquity, and in working at archaeological discoveries for his own delight and pleasure, placed the results unreservedly at the disposal of all who cared to step aside from the beaten track and visit this great museum in the midst of green fields and charming country.

Laurence Gomme.

NOTICE.

The Ba-Ronga. (Vol. X., pp. 225-227.)

In view, especially, of the public interest in South Africa, and of the questions relating to the native races which will be involved in the settlement after the war, Members of the Society are re- minded of M. Junod's two important works on the Ba-Ronga reviewed last year in these pages, namely, Les Ba-Ronga, Etude Ethnographique sur les Indigenes de la Bale de Delagoa, and Les Chatits et les Contes des Ba-Konga.

As previously announced, a few copies have been placed by the author in the Secretary's hands for issue to Members at a reduced price — Les Ba-Ronga at 6s., and Les Chants et les Contes at 3s.
