" Charles Stuart Blayds 



*' 1846." 



In a letter (18 March 1897) he says : " I well remember to have seen Mr. Charles 



Babington when I was about five or six years old, and have often heard my father 



and my mother speak of him as one of the gentlest and most amiable of men, and as 



a famous naturalist." The father was very fond of quoting the Horatian verse 



fungar vice cotis, acutum 

 reddere quae ferrum valet, exsors ipsa seeandi. 

 no matter: mine be like the whetstone's aid, 

 which, blunt itself, lends sharpness to the blade.
