Having completed the work for which he was employed, he 

 repaired to Washington, where he was for a short time engaged in 

 scientific work at the United States National Museum, and then 

 went to the American IMuseum of Natural History in New York, 

 undertaking the preparation of a Bibliography of Fishes, which 

 that Museum was engaged in getting out, the first two volumes of 

 which have already appeared. For this task he was extremely well 

 qualified, because of his erudition and linguistic attainments. 



Professor Eastman's contributions to the literature of science 

 number about one hundred titles, a number of these being notes of a 

 bibliographic or semi-historical character. He will best be remem- 

 bered by his translation in three volumes of Karl von Zittel's 

 Text-Book of Paleontology, published by the Macmillans, by the 

 Bibliography of the Fishes, issued by the American Museum of 

 Natural History, and by his Catalogues of the Fishes of Monte 

 Bolca and Solenhofen and other papers published by the Carnegie 

 Museum. His systematic contributions to his favorite science 

 consist of the definition of three new families, twelve new genera, 

 and one hundred and fifteen new species of fossil fishes, many of 

 which were first published by the Carnegie Museum. 



Professor Eastman early devoted himself in his studies to the 

 investigation of the placoderm fishes of the Devonian, which have 

 proved a puzzle to students ever since their existence became known. 

 Probably no individual ever devoted more time to the study of 

 these interesting forms than he. Wc have in the Carnegie Museum 

 an interesting series of models and a mounted skull of one of the 

 hugest of these fishes, to the preparation of which he devoted a great 

 deal of time.
