Field Meeting — Brentwood. Leaders— Mr. Francis Bennoch Carr and Mr. E. E. Syms, F.E.S.

The day arranged for the field meeting at Brentwood was most unfortunate, for it rained the whole time, making beating almost hopeless. Six members, however, braved the weather and were rewarded by finding both Orgyia gonostigma and Erastria venustula, the two species the finding of which was the object of the meeting. Tea was taken at the "Horse and Groom," after which it was decided to return home as the weather did not improve.

From Proceedings of the South London Entomological & Natural History Society Thursday, 22 January 1931 annual address by C. N. Hawkins

First and foremost, of course, on the roll of our losses comes the name of our late President, Mr. F. B. Carr. I think I am right in saying, that never before has the Society suffered the loss of a President, and the event naturally could not fail to cast a shadow over our activities during the past year.

F. B. Carr had been a member of the Society for over 30 years and during that time had endeared himself to many owing to his unfailing courtesy and good nature and the readiness with which he placed his wide knowledge and experience at the service of any who asked for them. Although of late years he was not a frequent exhibitor, he attended our meetings both here and in the field whenever possible and took a keen interest in all the Society's doings. He passed away on March 10th last without having ever been able to take up the position to which he had been elected and which he had so well earned.
