Obituary 



Charles E. Bessey 

 Nebraska is in niouriiiiig. Dr. Chas. 

 E. Bessey, Professor of Botany and 

 Dean of the Nebraska University, died 

 on Feb. 25tli. He was a student of 

 Asa Grey and since liis death was 

 probably the leading botanist of Amer- 

 ica. He was born in Oliio in 1845. Be- 

 came professor of botany in the Iowa 

 Agricultural College. In 1882 he came 

 to the Nebraska University. He did 

 not confine himself to botany but was 

 intensely interested in forestrv, horti- 

 culture and floriculture. We alwavs 

 depended on him. He was a man of 

 large experience and wide acquaint- 

 ance. He reared an army of scholars 

 who now occupy prominent places. He 

 was a genial, cheerful and helpful man. 

 One of his last public acts was at the 

 great banquet of organized agriculture 

 where the writer was the guest of 

 honor, when Dr. Bessey, the leading 

 speaker, paid such a beautiful tribute, 

 which is one of the happiest memories 

 of my life. Surely I have lost a friend.
