Obituary

Mrs. Marjorie Haines, regular members of our Continental excursions will be saddened to learn of the death of Mrs. Haines, a K.A.S. member since 1949, very shortly after returning from the Northumberland and Durham visit. She took an active part in all our annual visits and although in her eighth decade when we stayed in Normandy, she was instrumental in cementing Anglo-French archaeological relations; fluent French was needed to explain the provenance of some Romano-British pottery we were entrusted to deliver to the Museum in Caen. Marjorie perfectly translated for us. Joy Saynor
