Obituary. — David Thomas Gzvynne- Vaughan. xxiii 
Like Darwin, he was a sportsman even before he was a naturalist ; we have 
seen how it was he who did the shooting on the Malay expedition ; he 
always kept his taste for open-air pleasures. 
Though so much of his life was spent at Universities, he was very far 
from having an academic mind ; his love for Natural Science was inborn. 
This is shown by the way he came to Kew, entirely of his own choice, as 
soon as he was free to follow his natural bent. 
Another side of his character is shown by his marked interest in 
Malayan demonology, and generally in the customs and sayings of a primi- 
tive people. Here, again, his interest was sympathetic, and not merely that 
of an anthropologist. 
Gwynne-Vaughan’s personality was altogether attractive and original, 
and those who knew him felt that he was somehow different from the usual 
type of scientific man of his generation. 
He was a delightful and amusing companion, while at the same time 
his manner had a pleasant touch of old-world courtesy. He made warm 
friends, as was natural. Now that he has gone, so prematurely, we feel 
that, whether personally or scientifically, there could scarcely have been 
a greater loss to English Botany.
