Obituary: James Mawdesley Brander

( 287 ) (DBifuarp. JAMES MAWDESLEY BRANDER. BY the untimely death of James Brander, the Society has lost a good friend and a keen archaeologist who could but iU be spared. He had a deep-rooted objection to the custom of making a private Hfe pubUc property in an obituary notice, and for his friends in many walks of Hfe it wUl be sufficient to recaU the words of one of them :— " He was ' Jimmy ' at the Club ; always stood up when he had to speak in Committee, which was only when he had something of real moment to say, and to most of us he wiU be remembered by the peaceful way in which he would sleep, anywhere and at any time." We can pay his memory no higher compliment than to say that he is greatly missed. R. F. JESSUP. 24B
