  Myfather,likeotherbotanists,hadasSirJosephHookerpointsout,experiencedthevalueofSteudel’swork。Heobtainedplantsfromallsortsofsources,whichwereoftenincorrectlynamed,andhefeltthenecessityofadheringtotheacceptednomenclature,sothathemightconveytootherworkerspreciseindicationsastotheplantswhichhehadstudied。Itwasalsofrequentlyamatterofimportancetohimtoknowthenativecountryofhisexperimentalplants。ThusitwasnaturalthatheshouldrecognizethedesirabilityofcompletingandpublishingtheinterleavedvolumeatKew。
  ThewishtohelpinthisobjectwasheightenedbytheadmirationhefeltfortheresultsforwhichtheworldhastothanktheRoyalGardensatKew,andbyhisgratitudefortheinvaluableaidwhichforsomanyyearshereceivedfromitsDirectorandhisstaff。Heexpresslystatedthatitwashiswish"toaidinsomewaythescientificworkcarriedonattheRoyalGardens"(KewGardensReport,1881,page62。)——whichinducedhimtooffertosupplyfundsforthecompletionoftheKew’Nomenclator。’

  CHAPTER2。XVI。
  CONCLUSION。
  Someideaofthegeneralcourseofmyfather’shealthmayhavebeengatheredfromthelettersgivenintheprecedingpages。ThesubjectofhealthappearsmoreprominentlythanisoftennecessaryinaBiography,becauseitwas,unfortunately,sorealanelementindeterminingtheoutwardformofhislife。
  Duringthelasttenyearsofhislifetheconditionofhishealthwasacauseofsatisfactionandhopetohisfamily。Hisconditionshowedsignsofamendmentinseveralparticulars。Hesufferedlessdistressanddiscomfort,andwasabletoworkmoresteadily。SomethinghasbeenalreadysaidofDr。BenceJones’streatment,fromwhichmyfathercertainlyderivedbenefit。InlateryearshebecameapatientofSirAndrewClark,underwhosecareheimprovedgreatlyingeneralhealth。ItwasnotonlyforhisgenerouslyrenderedservicethatmyfatherfeltadebtofgratitudetowardsSirAndrewClark。Heowedtohischeeringpersonalinfluenceanoften—
  repeatedencouragement,whichlaterallyaddedsomethingrealtohishappiness,andhefoundsincerepleasureinSirAndrew’sfriendshipandkindnesstowardshimselfandhischildren。
  Scatteredthroughthepastpagesareoneortworeferencestopainoruneasinessfeltintheregionoftheheart。Howfartheseindicatethattheheartwasaffectedearlyinlife,Icannotpretendtosay;inanycaseitiscertainthathehadnoseriousorpermanenttroubleofthisnatureuntilshortlybeforehisdeath。Inspiteofthegeneralimprovementinhishealth,whichhasbeenabovealludedto,therewasacertainlossofphysicalvigouroccasionallyapparentduringthelastfewyearsofhislife。ThisisillustratedbyasentenceinalettertohisoldfriendSirJamesSulivan,writtenonJanuary10,1879:"Myscientificworktiresmemorethanitusedtodo,butIhavenothingelsetodo,andwhetheroneiswornoutayearortwosoonerorlatersignifiesbutlittle。"
  AsimilarfeelingisshowninalettertoSirJ。D。HookerofJune15,1881。
  MyfatherwasstayingatPatterdale,andwrote:"Iamratherdespondentaboutmyself……Ihavenottheheartorstrengthtobeginanyinvestigationlastingyears,whichistheonlythingwhichIenjoy,andIhavenolittlejobswhichIcando。"
  InJuly,1881,hewrotetoMr。Wallace,"WehavejustreturnedhomeafterspendingfiveweeksonUllswater;thesceneryisquitecharming,butI
  cannotwalk,andeverythingtiresme,evenseeingscenery……WhatIshalldowithmyfewremainingyearsoflifeIcanhardlytell。Ihaveeverythingtomakemehappyandcontented,butlifehasbecomeverywearisometome。"
  Hewas,however,abletodoagooddealofwork,andthatofatryingsort(Ontheactionofcarbonateofammoniaonrootsandleaves。),duringtheautumnof1881,buttowardstheendoftheyearhewasclearlyinneedofrest;andduringthewinterwasinalowerconditionthanwasusualwithhim。
  OnDecember13hewentforaweektohisdaughter’shouseinBryanstonStreet。DuringhisstayinLondonhewenttocallonMr。Romanes,andwasseizedwhenonthedoor—stepwithanattackapparentlyofthesamekindasthosewhichafterwardsbecamesofrequent。Therestoftheincident,whichIgiveinMr。Romanes’words,isinterestingtoofromadifferentpointofview,asgivingonemoreillustrationofmyfather’sscrupulousconsiderationforothers:——
  "Ihappenedtobeout,butmybutler,observingthatMr。Darwinwasill,askedhimtocomein,hesaidhewouldprefergoinghome,andalthoughthebutlerurgedhimtowaitatleastuntilacabcouldbefetched,hesaidhewouldrathernotgivesomuchtrouble。Forthesamereasonherefusedtoallowthebutlertoaccompanyhim。Accordinglyhewatchedhimwalkingwithdifficultytowardsthedirectioninwhichcabsweretobemetwith,andsawthat,whenhehadgotaboutthreehundredyardsfromthehouse,hestaggeredandcaughtholdofthepark—railingsasiftopreventhimselffromfalling。Thebutlerthereforehastenedtohisassistance,butafterafewsecondssawhimturnroundwiththeevidentpurposeofretracinghisstepstomyhouse。However,afterhehadreturnedpartofthewayheseemstohavefeltbetter,forheagainchangedhismind,andproceededtofindacab。"
  DuringthelastweekofFebruaryandinthebeginningofMarch,attacksofpainintheregionoftheheart,withirregularityofthepulse,becamefrequent,comingonindeednearlyeveryafternoon。AseizureofthissortoccurredaboutMarch7,whenhewaswalkingaloneatashortdistancefromthehouse;hegothomewithdifficulty,andthiswasthelasttimethathewasabletoreachhisfavourite’Sand—walk。’Shortlyafterthis,hisillnessbecameobviouslymoreseriousandalarming,andhewasseenbySirAndrewClark,whosetreatmentwascontinuedbyDr。NormanMoore,ofSt。
  Bartholomew’sHospital,andMr。Alfrey,ofSt。MaryCray。Hesufferedfromdistressingsensationsofexhaustionandfaintness,andseemedtorecognisewithdeepdepressionthefactthathisworkingdayswereover。Hegraduallyrecoveredfromthiscondition,andbecamemorecheerfulandhopeful,asisshowninthefollowinglettertoMr。Huxley,whowasanxiousthatmyfathershouldhaveclosermedicalsupervisionthantheexistingarrangementsallowed:
  Down,March27,1882。
  MydearHuxley,Yourmostkindletterhasbeenarealcordialtome。Ihavefeltbetterto—daythanforthreeweeks,andhavefeltasyetnopain。Yourplanseemsanexcellentone,andIwillprobablyactuponit,unlessIgetverymuchbetter。Dr。Clark’skindnessisunboundedtome,butheistoobusytocomehere。Onceagain,acceptmycordialthanks,mydearoldfriend。I

  TheallusiontoSirAndrewClarkrequiresawordofexplanation。SirAndrewClarkhimselfwaseverreadytodevotehimselftomyfather,who,however,couldnotendurethethoughtofsendingforhim,knowinghowseverelyhisgreatpracticetaxedhisstrength。
