Tlie British Ruhi ; an attempt to discriminate the species 

 of Rubus known to the British Islands. London, 1869. 8vo. 



Many critics lamented that all the species were not figured 

 in this book. The riddle may now be read. The artist em- 

 ployed, J. W. Salter,^^ was indeed master of his craft, but fitful 

 and wayward of mood. The press halted for the completion of 

 the plates, till at last it seemed better not to mar the effect by 

 employing a meaner pencil to finish Salter's work. A new 

 edition has long been in hand; it is hoped that the Rev, W. 

 Moyle Rogers, who has examined all additions, may carry it to 

 a close. The study of brambles brought Babington into daily 

 fellowship with F. J. A. Hort. The Cambridge Syndics bore 

 the cost of paper and print of this book. 



In 1848 appeared Index to the Baker Manuscripts by four 

 member's of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society. Cambridge. 

 Svo. (The preface, dated 7 January, bears the initials of J. J. 

 Smith, C. C. Babington, C. W. Goodwin, and Joseph Power). 

 As one who has been called to use these manuscripts more 

 than anyone else ever did or is likely to do, I venture to express 

 the gratitude of Cambridge antiquaries for this precious boon.
