Dedication.
MY
DEAR
MISS
GRENFELL,
I
CANNOT
forego
the
pleasure
of
dedicating
this
little
book
to
you;
excepting
of
course
the
opening
exhortation
(needless
enough
in
your
case)
to
those
who
have
not
yet
discovered
the
value
of
Natural
History.
Accept
it
as
a
memorial
of
pleasant
hours
spent
by
us
already,
and
as
an
earnest,
I
trust,
of
pleasant
hours
to
be
spent
hereafter
(perhaps,
too,
beyond
this
life
in
the
nobler
world
to
come),
in
examining
together
the
works
of
our
Father
in
heaven.
Your
grateful
and
faithful
brother-in-law,
