The Garden proper is not the culmination of Dr. Moiser’s . 
aspirations, for he writes :— 
‘“‘T should dearly love to have a small Herbarium down in 
the Garden arched over the N. end of the Terrace, built in English 
style with mullioned windows and red tiles. It would fit in there 
' admirably, and be really useful. Something of the sort is badly 
wanted, and away on the slope between the two valleys would 
stand the Museum and Laboratories, where science could be at 
work. and one could rest wearied eyes on cool spreading sward 
all round ! 
A charming thd a impossibly ideal picture in this otherwise 
barren and dry la 
We have oat be so much of the knowledge of plants possessed 
by the Hausa peoples from the labours of another distinguished 
medical officer, Dr. J. M. Dalziel, the author of the Hausa 
Dictionary, as well as from Dr. Moiser, and other collectors 
in Northern Nigera, that it is easy to realise that a small local 
Herbarium with a Museum and Laboratories, would be of very 
great value. 
Dr. Moiser in his work at Sokoto is only repeating the old 
story of botanical enterprise, and teaching us, as in times past, 
how closely the sciences of Botany and Horticulture are linked 
with the sister science of Medicine.
