Excerpt from Fifty Years of Work in Canada, Scientific and Educational I may add here, that, in so far as I have had any success as a teacher of Natural Science, it has been due to my reverend regard for every natural object, as the handiwork of the Divine Creator, and as consequently a sacred thing, the description or illustration of which was to supersede altogether any consideration of per sonal display or reputation.
