Enthusiastically devoted his art. his whole being was permeated with it. and it may safely said that lived for music ami nothing but music. took a keen delight in Chamber music, and many were the delightful musical evenings spent his house in Shornden-villas, and when could got an octett of strings together his delight was unbounded—his eight kings he used call them. composer belonging THE ROMANTIC SCHOOL was well known, and his string and pianoforte trios were great beauty. a glee writer, too, was very successful, and won several prizes in open competition. October, 1888, "Magnum Opus," symphonic netting ot' "Palatnon and Arcite," was brought out what was meant to be a benefit concert; but the benefit was all the wrong side, and although strong committee did their best to cut down expenses. Mr. Nixon insisted having such large contingent of professional performers that he was out of pocket when all expenses were Unfortunately, after leaving St. Leonards, Mr. Nixon fell evil days; losing first his eldest child, a boy of great promise, and then his wife; after some time his own health gave way.
