DR CHARLES EUSEBE DIONNE, NATURALIST. 



1845-1925 



By Dr. A. Dery and S. Matte of the Provancher Society of Natural History, 



Quebec. 



In the death of C. E. Dionnc, which occurred on January 25, 1925, the 

 world of natural science lost one of its finest personalities. Almost unknown, 

 and humble as all true scientists are, he progressed and became, by dint of 

 effort, perseverance and courage, one of the leading ornithologists of his country. 



His death is a severe loss to scientific societies and to sportsmen, but espe- 

 cially to Laval University, where his place will be difficult to fill. 



Charles Eusebe Dionne, son of Pascal Eusebe Dionne and Emilie (Lavoie) 

 Dionne, was born on July 11, 1845, at St. Denis, Kamouraska County, Quebec. 

 His father was a farmer of limited means.
