In later life he visited [[Canada]] and [[Alaska]] (1922), and [[Africa]] (1925). His chief interest was in the study of the [[Great Barrier Reef]]. He had become assistant curator of the Australian museum in 1908 and in 1920 he succeeded [[Robert Etheridge, Junior]] as principal keeper of collections. During this time he worked with [[Joyce Allan]], from whom he obtained illustrations for his scientific papers.<ref name="ADB 1993">{{cite web|last1=McMichael|first1=D.

Between April and August 1926 he was supervising the sinking of a bore on [[Michaelmas Reef]] near Cairns, and he returned to Sydney in August intending to visit [[Japan]] in connexion with the third Pan-Pacific Science Congress. Not being well he decided to abandon the journey, and though it was hoped that a rest would restore his health, he died suddenly on 14 September 1926. He married and left a widow and an adopted daughter.<ref name="Serle"/> ==Awards and achievements== Hedley was on the council of the [[Linnean Society of New South Wales]] from 1897 to 1924 and was president from 1909 to 1911; he was on the council for 16 years of the [[Royal Society of New South Wales]] and was president in 1914; he was a vice-president of the [[Malacological Society of London]] from 1923. He was awarded the David Syme prize in 1916, and in 1925 received the [[Clarke Medal]] from the Royal Society of New South Wales. A man of invariable courtesy and kindliness, held in the highest regard by contemporary scientists, his knowledge was always at the disposal of younger naturalists and visiting scientists. His work, and especially in regard to the zoo-geographical history of the [[Pacific Ocean]], gave him a high place among Australian zoologists. A list of 156 published research papers written by Hedley, and 15 in association with others, was printed in 1924.<ref name="Serle"/> == Bibliography == * Hedley C. 1892.
