IGO REPORT ON NATIONAL MUSEUM. 



comproliensive scheme for its prosecution. The report upon this sub- 

 ject, soon to be published by the Census Bureau, his in conception and 

 chiefly th(^ product of his labors, will undoubtedly be the finest of its 

 kind ever j)repared. The National IMuseum contains an imjjerishable 

 monument to his memory in the magnificent collection of building 

 stones which he gathered — a collection far surpassing any other in the 

 world. 



Hawes was a man of upright and noble character — a character shaped 

 by a reverent faith in the teachings of the Christian religion. Like 

 many men trained in the methods of scientific thought, he felt unable 

 to agree with the doctrines of any sect, but in our conversations he 

 asserted his belief in the Christian revelation, and all who know him 

 must feel that his life was shaped by this belief.
