Abstract
THE sudden death from angina pectoris on March 15 of Mr. G. E. Bullen, Curator of the Herts County Museum at St. Albans, is announced. Among the smaller museums in the country there can be few which have been raised to such a pitch of excellence, and this has been due entirely to the whole-hearted devotion and enthusiasm of Mr. Bullen during the past twenty ye rs. A considerable extension and rearrangement of the collections has recently been completed, and, especially on the archaeological side, the museum is now a model of what a local museum should be, the clear demonstrative labelling of the exhibits being a special feature. Mr. Bullen's work had been for some time carried on in defiance of indifferent health, and his death at the early age of forty is a great loss.
