This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Sinel was the youngest son of Philip Sinel, a wholesale tobacco merchant, and Charlotte Babot.
When fifteen he entered Voisin & Company’s furniture department, where he eventually became manager. His spare time was spent at low tide amongst the rocks of Street Clement’s Bay, where the wealth of marine life in the pools fascinated him. He determined to devote his life to natural science.
Sinel resigned his position at Voisin"s, and started business as a taxidermist.
He gave a number of lectures to a variety of groups. Papers which he contributed to "Science Gossip" brought him English correspondents, many of whom crossed to Jersey to obtain his help in collecting specimens.
Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace frequently wrote to him about topics of marine zoology. He attempted to revive the local oyster fisheries.
A Jersey Oyster Culture Company was formed and quantities of spat from Auray were placed in cage traps near Green Island, but the site proved insufficiently protected against storms, and the enterprise failed.
In 1907 he became curator of the Société Jersiaise Museum, a post which he held until his death. Most of the zoological exhibits were his handiwork.
