Perth, Scotland
[Sept. 8, 1905]

in the 35th year of his age
Endowed
with an acute and vigorous mind
which he improved by diligent study
this eminent botanist
uniformly exemplified in his conduct
those Christian virtues
which invested his character
with a higher and more imperishable distinction
than he justly acquired
by his well-earned reputation for scientific knowledge
a dutiful son
a kind and affectionate brother
a sincere friend
he secured by
the rectitude of his moral and religious principles
not less than by
the benevolence of his disposition
the esteem and regard
of all who knew his worth.
