On Friday, December 31, the final day of the recent entomological meetings in Boston, delegates from the various Societies represented in those meetings went out to Milton village, and with brief ceremony unveiled a simple marble tablet placed on the old "Suffolk Resolves mansion" to commemorate the residence there of Thaddeus Wil- liam Harrkl
The inscription, composed by Colonel Thomas Wentworth Higgin- son, who in his student days was a pupil of Harris, reads as follows: IN THIS HOUSE FROM 1824 TO 1831 DWELT
THADDEUS WILLIAM HARRIS M. D.
BOTANIST, ENTOMOLOGIST; AND FINALLY
LIBRARIAN OF HARVARD COLLEGE
IN EACH CAPACITY HE WON
FOR HIMSELF FAME AND GRATITUDE
HE HAD THE MODESTY AND UNSELFISHNESS
OF TRUE SCIENCE
WITH WHAT MAY RIGHTLY BE CALLED
ITS CHIVALRY OF SPIRIT
Besides the entomologists, there were present representatives of the Milton Historical Society and the Science Club of Milton Academy. W. L. W. FIELD.
