Henry C. Fairweather

Henry Clifton Fairweather (1906-2002) was a land surveyor and town planner in Belize and is known for planting over one hundred thousand mahogany trees.

During his career as a surveyor, he was involved in the founding of the Cross Country Cycling Classic race in 1928.[1] In 1933, he was a member of a survey team that helped define the border between Belize and Guatemala.[2] When Belize was looking to move its capital city, he helped select the location for the city of Belmopan.[3]

In the 1950s, Philip Goldson established the Department of Housing and Planning and appointed Fairweather as its first director.[4] In that position, he directed the rebuilding of Corozal after it was destroyed in Hurricane Janet in 1955.[4]

Fairweather is a founder patron of the Belize Audubon Society in 1969.

Around 1982, he developed a passion for planting mahogany trees. He planted over 100,000 of them at his own expense during the next two decades, earning the nickname "Mahogany Man" in the process.[4]

In mathematical terms, it is an injective function. Perfect hash functions may be used to implement a lookup table with constant worst-case access time. A perfect hash function can, as any hash funct...
