Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of Botany, British and Foreign, 1887, Vol. 25 Whenever his training was received, it resulted in making him a polished Latinist and a facile writer of French, while his knowledge of German certainly influenced his tone of scientific thought in after years. On the 1st of September, 1844, when he was seventeen years of age, he entered the civil service of Hongkong, on the nomination of Sir John Davis, Governor of that colony. In rather less than ten years he was transferred to the Superintendency of trade in China, under the control of the foreign office, taking his place as 4th assistant on May 1st, 1854. As his friend sir Thomas Wade writes: - "His position was slightly,his prospects very much, improved by the transfer, which he owed to the recommendation of Sir John Bowring, who was always ready to bring forward any man connected with science or literature." At the time of the disturbance arising from the attack on the lorcha 'Arrow,' which led to the second war with China, he was attached to the Canton consulate as senior assistant under the late Sir Harry (then Mr.) Parkes, and, in the words of Sir Thomas Wade, "right well he worked" during the exciting period of the commencement of hostilities. In December, 1856, after the burning of the foreign factories at Canton, which cost him a serious loss of property, including books and botanical collections, he left for Hongkong. There he became senior assistance in the superintendency, with the care of the archives, his experience in the work of this department securing him an appointment which he himself had in no way solicited. In May, 1859, when the superintendency was broken up by the establishment of H. M.'s legation in China, Dr. Hance found, to his regret, that he had to go back to his post as senior assistant at Canton; but on March 26th, 1861, he was made vice-consul at Whampoa, a post about twelve miles further down the river. This position he held continuously for seventeen years, until the departure of the late Sir Brooke Robertson for home, when he took charge of the Canton Consulate from March, 1878, till November, 1879. In 1881 he was again acting consul at Canton from August to December, and he held the same appointment for a third time during Mr. Consul Hewlett's absence on sick leave from July 14th, 1883, till May 31st, 1885. In September, 1883, serious riots occurred at Canton, and for some hours the English settlement on Shameen lay at the mercy of a Chinese mob. During this crisis, although some people thought that Dr. Hance might have assumed a stronger attitude, the general feeling was that he had exhibited no lack of those qualities which should distinguish a British official. Naturally, throughout this troubled period, his scientific work had to be suspended, and in January, 1884, he wrote me: - "Amidst the constant worry and anxiety of my daily life, I have been unable, except for a spare half-hour or so, to do anything at all botanically; but I hope, rather than expect, in a more or less proximate future, to get a little more time. I quite 'gave up' library and herbarium at the time of the irruption on Shameen! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Botany, British and Foreign, 1909, Vol. 47 Richard paget murray, who died Oct. 29, was born Dec. 26, 1842, at Thornton, I. Of Man, the eldest son of Colonel Henry Murray and a descendant Of the third Duke of Athole; his family became Lords of Man in the eighteenth century. At Cambridge he took the highest honours, being first in the First Class of the Natural Science Tripos in 1867. His special subject was Botany; this brought him into close connection with Prof. Babington, of whom he always spoke with great regard. In 1882 he was elected f.l.s. Ordained in 1868, he held curacies at Plymstock and Beckenham. From 1877 to 1882 he had the sole charge of Baltonsborough, Somerset; and for the last twenty-five years of his life he was Vicar of Shapwick, Dorset, where he was laid to rest on November 3rd. I paid him several Visits there, and he was evidently much respected and beloved by his parishioners.
