There is let us hope no botanist prepared to follow Prof. 

 Greene in his wild hunt through the lexicons, for names, many 

 of which if they could possibly be identified with certainty, 

 would still be only manuscript names. Any date earlier than 

 that of lyinnseus involves a prodigious waste of time and long 

 uncertainty, and with the evidence of his writings before us we 

 submit that Prof. Greene's time could be much more usefully 

 spent in taking an elementary course in botany at Harvard or 

 Stanford. 



A year or two before his death Dr. Gray dubbed the author 

 "The new Rafinesque." In this he was unjust to Rafinesque 

 who was at once a great egotist, a little mad, and somewhat of a 

 genius. Prof Greene lacks the genius. K. B.
