of minerals and with extremely fruitful results, which are set forth in 

 his paper on "The determination of mineral constitution through recast- 

 ing of analyses'' (1908). 



In the above review the endeavor has been made to emphasize the sub- 

 jects to which Dr. Julien made contributions of especial importance. 

 Perusal, how^ever, of his bibliography will show a number of other topics 

 on which he wrote. His interest was especially keen in microscopic 

 work and he was one of the original founders of the New York Micro- 

 scopical Society, in 1880. He was one of the original members of the 

 American Society of Naturalists at its establishment, in 1883. In 1878 

 he w^as elected honorary member of the Louisville Microscopical Society 

 and in 1889 was made Fellow of the Eoyal Microscopical Society, He 

 became Fellow of the Geological Society of America in May, 1889, in the 

 second 3^ear of its organized activities. 



Upon retirement from active university work, at the age of seventy, 

 Dr. Julien vigorously continued his scientific work and was busy with 

 his writings up to his final illness. The disastrous fire which destroyed 

 his home, as mentioned above, played havoc with the results of years 

 of work. It is tragic that they could not have come to issue while yet 

 he was able to see the fruition.' 



In 1882 Dr. Julien married Annie Walker Nevius, daughter of the 

 late Peter J. Kevins, of Few York City, and still living at their home of 

 recent years in South Harwich, Massachusetts. To Mrs. Julien the 

 writer is greatly indebted for incidents in the life of her husband, which 

 have supplemented a personal friendship of nearly forty years.
