The distinction of being elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical So- ciety has recently been achieved by Mr. 0. T. Ourrelly, B.A., of Toronto University, in recognition of the work accomplished in connection with his book on "Sinai." He has also received an appointment in connection with the New York Art Museum, as advisor, in regard to Egyptian antiquities says a eontemporary. Some time ago he was awarded a decoration by the I he - dive, being made an officer of the Im- perial Order of the Mejedieh. This lat- ter was in consequence of the great work he undertook in removing, at the request of the Egyptian Government, great tablets of stone from the face of the cliffs where the old Turquoise min- ers ransacked the treasures of the rocks. These tablets dated back to the time of Cheops, about 2,800 B. C., and contained not only al chaicinscriptions, valuable from a historical point of view, but also representations of the Pharaohs, who built the pyramids. Mr. Cur•relly is also a joint editor of "Aby- dos," the last publication of the Egyp- tian Exploration Society. The chap- ters written by him on the tomb of Senusert III., and of Aabmes I. (who was the founder of the eighteenth dy- nasty, and the conqueror of the Hyk- sos), and also that part of the book de- voted to the Shrine of Teta Sheri, "The Great Queen and Royal Mother," are particularly interesting. Mr. Cur- relly has thus been made the recipient . of English, American and Egyptian honors, and brings much learning and experience to his new position rela- tive to the Mnseum of the University of Toronto.
