TO
SIR HENRY HOLLAND, Bart., M.D.,
F.R.S., D.C.L., ETC. ETC.
My dear Sir Henry,
In giving myself the pleasure to dedicate, as I now do, this work to you, it is not my intention to identify you with any views of my own advocated in it.
I simply avail myself of an opportunity of paying a tribute of esteem and regard to my earliest scientific friend—the first to encourage me in pursuing the study of nature.
I remain, My dear Sir Henry, Ever faithfully yours, ST. GEORGE MIVART. 7, North Bank, Regent's Park, December 8, 1870.
