months of February and March, he is supposed to have contracted 

 that fever which terminated his life : he died at his residence in Cam- 

 bridge Street, Hyde Park, on the 6th of April, 1854. I cannot con- 

 clude this notice more appropriately than in the words of Mr. Bell : — 

 " He loved and followed Science for her own sake ; and if occasion- 

 ally he appeared somewhat tenacious of his opinions and over-anxious 

 for his own fame, surely this was pardonable in one who gave up all 

 for the pursuit of knowledge, depriving himself without a murmur of 

 even the most common comforts, that he might devote himself the 

 more unreservedly to the one noble object of his life. He worked for 

 knowledge and perhaps for fame; but he never prostituted science to 

 gain, nor mingled ignoble motives with his pursuits."
