Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials Journal and Botanical Correspondence of Charles Cardale Babington It is felt that his best reward will be the consciousness that in thus generously contributing of his learning and time, he has largely enabled a wide circle (to whom this life may be at present perhaps too little known) to realise what a possession has been entrusted to Cambridge for Well-nigh sixty-nine years, in having had enrolled amongst her members the pure and noble name of him herein pourtrayed. Thus will he have contributed to hand down to future generations Of students the priceless inheritance of so inspiring a record. Special thanks are, due to the writers of each of the other Reminiscences for permission to reproduce them here, as well as to other friends who have written for this volume. II. Journal. From this record, which extends over well-nigh a whole life, extracts have been carefully made, as far as was possible to unfold the daily life in special connexion with its botanical, archaeological, and philanthropic interests. The record in its simplicity, and truth-loving utterances, furnishes its own portrait of the mind therein revealed. This portion of the book closes with Notes by Professor Mayor which help to elucidate various points contained in the articles.
