. British bee journal & bee-keepers adviser. Bees. Jan. 22, 1920. THE BRITISH BEE JOURNAL. 37. Obituary Notice. The Late Mr. J. N. Smallwood. As briefly stated in our last issue, it is with deep regret that we record the passing of our old friend and colleague. He had not been well for some time, and, becoming suddenly wbrse, he consulted a specialist, who advised an immediate serious operation. This was performed successfully at the Cottage Hospital, Hendon, on December 18. He had great hopes that he would get about again, but on January 7, the day he was due to leave the hospital, he passed peacefully away. Widely read and travelled, his knowledge of men and things was unbounded, and his lucid and interesting evpression ex- ceeded by few. A devoted Catholic, and a schoolmate of Father Bernard Vaughan, his integrity was never questioned, and he was beloved by all who came in contact with him. In 1913 the late Junior Editor gave him his heart's desire, which was to visit The Vatican at Rome, by taking him as com- panion on his European tour. His one regret was that he failed to obtain the personal audience with the Pope, which had been arranged, on account of His Holiness being prostrated by the extreme heat on the day of Mr. Smallwood's arrival in the city. Our readers will re- member his interesting account of that trip, which appeared in our pages. It was good to see his enjoyment of the tour, and the sight of all the interesting places.
