JOHN MACKAY, GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE William Wesley and Son, 28 Essex Street, Strand, London W.C. OBITUARY. AUGUSTUS HAMILTON. Augustus Hamilton was born at Poole, Dorset, in the year 1854. He was educated at Dorset County School and at the Epsom Medical College. In 1876 he came to New Zealand, and taught successively at Thorndon, Okarito, and Petane. While at the last-named school he began his long connection with the New Zealand Institute by becoming Secretary to the Hawkes Bay Philosophical Society. The museum of this Society is a memorial of his work. In 1890 Hamilton was appointed Registrar of the University of Otago. The period of his Registrarship was by far the most productive in his life, as is indicated by the great list of papers on botany, zoology, and ethnology in the " Transactions of the New Zealand Institute " for those years.
