The death of Mr Geoffrey Edward Wheatley Cobb at Milford Haven, at the age of 73, recalls his successful efforts to save the oldest vessel afloat, the Implacable, last survivor of the Trafalgar prize ships. His ruling enthusiasm was for naval history. It was in 1908 that Mr Cobb appealed to King Edward and obtained a cancellation of the order for the sale of the Implacable, which he took over from the Admiralty four years later. He moved her to Falmouth and maintained her till 1925. In 1924 he let Caldicot Castle, near Chepstow, furnished at a rental of £3OO a year, to provide funds for the preservation of the training ship. The castle is a splendid relic of feudal magnificence. The picturesque courtyard has been transformed into a garden, dominated by the' figurehead of Nelson’s old flagship. In 1025 Earl Beatty raised a fund for the restoration of the Implacable, and obtained the appointment of a committee to take charge of her. Kaitangata burns brightly to the last, radiating an even, lasting heat. — Adrt,
