This course was intended not only to provide for the 

 student who meant to take Honours in Biology in the Natural 

 Science School, the general survey of the structure of both 

 plants and animals which is the necessary preliminary to 

 a more detailed study of Anatomy and Physiology, but was 

 also open to other students who were not preparing for 

 examination in the subject. 



In the following year the course with a few minor alterations 

 in the list of types was repealed, and the practical work 

 was done in the large " greenhouse in the north-west corner 

 of the Garden (site of 1911 Lecture Room), which Lawson 

 cleared out and made into a delightful room for the practical 

 class." Sir Ray Lankester, who has so kindly written to me 

 on this point, writes : " I drew up with Lawson printed 

 schedules of each day's work, and I had a very stiff time as 

 it was my first year at University College, London. I lectured 

 there in the Summer Term three days a week and three days 

 a week in Oxford at the Botanical Gardens, followed by a 

 whole day's practical work. Lawson took the other three 

 days. The Plasmodium of Aethalium was obtained by me at 

 Abingdon Lawson and I went over to get it and it was a 

 lovely sight ! "
