'''1923 Obituary <ref>The Engineer 1923/08/03</ref>
 
Mr Herbert E. Mitchell, who died suddenly of heart failure on July 23rd at 13, Victoria-street, Westminster, was a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers and of the Institution of Electrical Engineers. He had been engaged in the profession since 1888 when he became chief assistant to professor [[George Forbes]], F.R.H, and was responsible for several electricity supply undertakings, and the equipment for power, light. and heating of various public institutions and factories in London and the provinces.
 
One of his chief undertakings while in private practice was the preparation of designs and specifications for the heating and ventilating of the New County Hall for London. Though not executed in its entirety. owing to changed conditions due to the war, the most original part of this work, the heating and ventilating of the Council Chamber, has, we believe, been carried out substantially in accordance with his design. The method o£ individual control of the air supply by members at their seats is a novel feature in such work, and seems likely to be widely adopted. [More].
