IN MEMORIAM.

Mr. RICHARD HERNE SHEPHERD.

Ten years ago few figures were better known to the London bookseller than that of the eccentric littérateur who passed away on July 15, 1895. Four or five years ago, however, declining health necessitated his retirement from active life, and in a retreat at Camberwell his last days were spent in compiling for Notes and Queries a bibliography of Coleridge, and in preparing for the press a bibliography of Tennyson. He was a native and a resident of Chelsea, the son of Samuel Shepherd, F.S.A., and the grandson of a former minister of Ranelagh Chapel, the Rev. Richard Herne Shepherd.
