. British bee journal & bee-keepers adviser. Bees. Dec. 5, 1918. THE BRITISH BEE JOURNAL. 393. OBITUARY NOTICE. Mr. H. W. Kirkby. We regret to announce the death of .Mr. Henry William Kirkby, of Salters- ford, near Grantham, on Sunday, Novem- ber 17, at the age of 71 years. Mr. Kirkby, who has lived at Salters- ford for 38^ years, commenced bee-keep- ing 36 years ago with two or three hives, later working up to about 15. He was engine driver at the water- works pumping station, and kept bees more for the real pleasure and interest in them than for the profit obtained from them. The village is situated in beau- tiful country about two miles from Gran- tham, and during the summer time is frequented by numbers of visitors. To these Mr. Kirkby was never tired of explaining the habits of the bees, and how they were managed. Much of his spare time, summer and winter, was de- voted to studying them and attending to their wants. Like the majority of good bee-keepers, Mr. Kirkby was also fond of his garden, and took great pride in his flower beds. Naturally, he grew flowers that were not only pleasing in form, colour, or aroma, but were useful to his boos, also growing borage, melilotus and other bee plants on some waste ground for their benefit. He did not do much exhibiting, but won second prize for some honey at the Lincolnshire Agriculture Show at Gran- tham. Mr. Kirkby was also an advocate of bee stings as a cure for rheumatism, as he said they had cured him. Tn Oastlegate, Grantham, is a public- house, "The Beehive, " with a "living sign, " a short description of which was given in the Record for July last. The " living sign " is a hive of bees in a tree by the edge of the pavement, and on several occasions when the " sign " has died or become weak, fresh bees were supplied by Mr. Kirkby. During his last illness, although he knew he would he unable to work again, he still hoped to get about and look after a few hives of beesj h
