796 FINAL JOURNEYS AND WORK. [1887, 
at Berlin; a botanic garden man and good teacher. 
Weisner’s physiological laboratory I ee an hour or 
two in, and saw all his gimcracks; some nice ones. 
Saturday evening we went by rail to Salzburg (at day- 
dawn); Munich at sunrise, not stopping; on to Ulm 
soon after ten A.M. Bad weather kept Mrs. Gray 
indoors all day Sunday, though I ran about. Monday 
morning she had with me a good look over Ulm min- 
ster, inside and out; the upper part of the spire is 
rebuilding, and is to be carried up with the true taper, 
according to the original plan. That sight-seeing 
done, we came yesterday to, and across, the Lake Con- 
stance, to Zurich, for late afternoon and evening, and 
on to Geneva overnight. 
I passed an hour this morning with De Candolle, 
—aged, but fairly cheerful,—and he begged me to 
breakfast with him to-morrow. Miiller Argoviensis 
was not at his post. 
What a season you have had, and what a fiasco 
Normandy would have been, as you say. Why, the 
apple blossoms are only now out here. We did have 
comfortable, warm and dry weather at Vienna, and 
the Belvidere gallery is most enjoyable. Berlin we 
don’t in the least care for; but our faces are rather 
set for Amsterdam, Antwerp, ete. If you have a eall 
to write me soon after getting this, for a day or two 
you might venture Amsterdam, poste restante; but 
later the old address, to Hotel St. Romain, Rue San 
Roque, would be the thing until further notice; add 
“To be kept till called for.” 
I doubt if we shall be back in England before the 
17th or 18th, and then Mrs. Gray will have to join 
her luggage, left somewheré in the neighborhood of 
Charing Crpas, where it now reposes, and we shall 
have to ; fastte down to Cambridge. .
