It had been the intention of the Institution to 

 place here a biography of its late Assistant Secre- 

 tary, Dr. George Brown Goode, but on account of 

 his special charge of the Museum it has been 

 thought better to transfer this to the Museum vol- 

 ume, where an account of his scientific labors can 

 be found at length. The Secretary, however, does 

 not wish to leave without remark the page which 

 contains this reference to one whose life was inti- 

 mately associated not only with the Museum, but 

 with the parent Institution, of which he was, as it 

 were, a son, and where he was so greatly loved 

 and trusted by all. 



S. P. IvANGLEY, 



Secretary of the Smithsojiian Institution.
