providing much information about him. He leaves two children : 
Col 
Lt.- A. M. Duthie, D.S.0., Lég. d’Honneur, O.B.E., now 
Commanding the Artillery School a Quetta, and Mrs. W. H. 
Norman, wife of Col. W. H. Norman, C.B., D.S.0., now on the 
Staff in India. 
During the whole of his service in India, Duthie was in 
constant and regular correspondence with Sir Joseph Hooker 
The originals of Sir Joseph’s letters to him were presented by 
him before his death to the Kew Library and many of them were 
quoted or otherwise referred to in the Life of Sir Joseph Hooker 
prepared by Mr. Leonard Huxley and published by Lady Hooker. 
They show well how much Sir Joseph appreciated Duthie’s 
work and the warm regard he always felt for him. 
Duthie was a slow worker and very cautious, so that he was 
often unable quickly to make up his mind on systematic questions, 
but he always came to a decision in the end and the result was 
the more valuable in consequence. He was always extremely 
anxious to avoid inaccuracy and used to polish up his work and 
descriptions over and over again in order to make sure that they 
were quite right. The most unassuming of men, he never put 
himself forward in the least, leaving it to his friends to estimate 
the value of what he did. He was a delightful travelling 
companion and an excellent climber, and many Indian Forest 
Officers and other friends will long remember the kindly, good- 
natured botanist who accompanied them on their marches 
over the plains or mountains of Northern India. They will 
al] hear of his death with great regret.
