Abstract
SOME two or three years ago a swarm of bees entered a very small hole under the slates near the eaves of the roof of my house in the Highlands, and established themselves for the summer but died out in the subsequent winter. I infer that there were no survivors among the bees to remember the circumstance (see Appendix to Kirby and Spence's “Entomology”) and to account in any degree for what occurred this summer.
