Not illustrated. 1888 edition. Excerpt: ...shows that his work was now temporarily interrupted. He says: ' " ' I have been so much engaged for the last year in the Department of Agriculture, with ofljce work and laying the foundation for an agricultural museum, that I have not been able to etch at all, so that my work remains at a stand-still at presentIn a few weeks, when I am not so fully occupied as I am now, Iintend to recommence etching, when I shall be happy to attempt your plates," although I am afraid that you overestimate my abilities to do them, etc. For the next two or three years his work was still more or less interrupted by Department afiairs.

The Life and Entomological Work of the Late Townend Glover by Charles Richards Dodge Pdf

Excerpt from The Life and Entomological Work of the Late Townend Glover: First Entomologist of the U. S. Department of Agriculture Dear sir: In undertaking to tell the story of Mr. Glover's life, I feel that, while it is a pleasant privilege to be able to review such interest ing reminiscences of our long acquaintance as may bear upon the man and his work, the account must be necessarily imperfect and incomplete in portions from lack of important data. The facts regarding his boyhood life are gleaned from your Visits to, and correspondence with, Mr. C. G. Oates and Mr. Abram Clapham, Of London, England - Mr. Oates's mother and Mr. Clapham being Mr. Glover's first cousins, the nearest English relatives who were living at the time, -and also from early personal diaries and family papers, loaned me by Mrs. Hopper.
