Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Old Friends at Cambridge and Elsewhere
Out of these, with some additions, the present article has been composed.
It has been suggested to me that an article on Richard Owen, in a series devoted entirely, with that exception, to Cambridge men, needs justification. I would urge in my defence that the Senate coopted Owen by selecting him, in is59, as the first recipient of an honorary degree under the new statutes.
