ABSTRACT THE president of the British Association, Prof. W. W. Watts, has received from H.M.S. Beagle a cablegram, recalling the centenary of Darwin's landing from the former Beagle on
the Galapagos Islands. This important event in the history of biological science was duly noticed at the recent meeting of the Association in Norwich. (See NATURE of September 14, p. 426.)
The cable pays tribute to “our most distinguished passenger”, and adds that “the present Beagle salutes the British Association, the trustees of science”. An appreciative acknowledgment,
wishing good luck to the present Beagle, has been returned. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS
