was applied for ; and thus his catalogue could be quoted only in 

 the latter portion of the county lists, where it is made supple- 

 mentary to that of the Eev. E. 0. Douglas. 



Mr. George Stacey Gibson. 



1, 2. Alphabetical Catalogue (Edinburgh) checked to show 

 the plants observed in the county of Cornwall in 1846. As 

 this list relates to the whole county, not specially to a vice- 

 county, it is scarcely used in this work. Besides which, its

 London Catalogue, to which all the books of the present compiler 

 have been adapted in names and numerical order.

 nected circumstance. Some years afterwards I bought from 

 Mr. Pamplin of London a small collection of Orkney plants, 

 " collector unknown." The handwriting on several of the labels,

 collected in Orkney by himself or Mr. Duguid. The collection 

 is accordingly quoted as " Gillies herb." 



Mr. Joe Goodlad. " Goodlad lib."
