Edward Bartlett

“ During the years he passed in the Zoological Gardens he became more closely connected with the scientific world, and devoted his whole time and energy to the study of animal life, which all those who knew him can testify. He was a man of vast resource and quick perception, in many difficult cases was always ready to help those around him out of their almost hopeless position, kind to all classes of society, and at the same time of a retiring nature, never wishing to force himself upon society.— (Edward Bartlett) . ”

“ It would be difficult, and beyond the limits of this Journal, to give a detailed insight into the vast amount of work carried out during the years from 1859 to the present day, which, we are given to understand, will be compiled before long in a more collected and chronological form. ”
