When Gray's Manual, 6th edition, edited by Sereno Watson and John M. Coulter, appeared, it received deadly though just criticism from Edward Lee Greene. Coulter resented this criticism strongly says Andrew Denny Rodgers of Ohio who came in to see me on ?. This was something I had overlooked. Coulter always, says Rodgers, was unfriendly to Greene's publications in the Botanical Gazette. It is in my mind pretty certain that Rodgers' words are being recorded correctly. I think so. How one thing leads to another! Finally Greene described in immortal phrase Coulter's Manual of the Rocky Mts. as perfect! Every word taken from some other author! (cont. p. 12).
