MORRISON, RICHARD JAMES (1795-1874) ,
English
  astrologer, commonly known by his pseudonym " Zadkiel," was born on the 15th of June 1795. He served in the Royal Navy, but resigned with the rank of
lieutenant
  in 1829. He then devoted himself to the study of
astrology
 , and in 1831 issued The Herald of
Astrology
 , subsequently known as Zadkiel's Almanac. In this annual pamphlet
Morrison
 , over the signature " Zadkiel Tao-Sze," published predictions of the
chief
  events of the coming year. In 1863
Morrison
  brought a libel action against
Admiral
  Sir
Edward
  Belcher, who had accused him of obtaining money by charlatanism in the form of crystal-gazing. He was awarded twenty shillings
damages
 , but was deprived of his
costs
 . Morrison died on the 5th of
April
  1874.
