Abstract
CHARLES WILLIAM HOBLEY died at his residence at Oxted, Surrey, on March 31 in his eightieth year. For the past six years or so his health had been frail and his activity was considerably reduced. He will be best remembered for his pioneer work for the prevention of the threatened extermination of some of the more graceful mammals. He was also an authority on the life, both human and wild, of East Africa.
