After settling at Lichfield, he attended, during several years, chiefly to medicine; but no doubt he was continually observing and making notes on various subjects.

His chief reason for writing a notice of his grandfather's life was to contradict flatly some calumnies by Miss Seward. This appears from a letter of March 27, 1879, to his cousin Reginald Darwin, in which he asks for any documents and letters which might throw light on the character of Erasmus. This led to Mr. Reginald Darwin placing in my father's hands a quantity of valuable material, including a curious folio common-place book, of which he wrote: I have been deeply interested by the great

It appears however from papers in the possession of Mr. Reginald Darwin that he got 1000 under his mother's settlement, and 400 from his aunt Susannah Darwin. At p. 106 some account is given of Erasmus Darwin's contributions to medicine. To these an interesting addition may now be made on the authority of Dr. Norman Moore. It appears that some progress towards the discovery of the relation of albuminuria to dropsy had been made before the time of Bright. Van Helmont and Cotunnius knew

2. PORTRAIT OF WILLIAM DARWIN OF CLEATHAM, LINCOLNSHIRE (1681 1760). Lent by Sir George H. Darwin, K.C.B., F.R.S. Oil painting, artist unknown. The following note by the present owner of the picture is of interest. Reginald Darwin told me that this picture was bought by his father Sir Francis Darwin in 1817, when the pictures at Elston were sold. It was marked on the canvas in very old writing 'William Darwin b. 1655 d. 1682.' But the style of wig and dress are those of temp. Geo. II. or

He is to preach next Sunday on Darwin at the Abbey and tells me that he wishes to make such amends as he can for the reception formerly given by the Church party to Darwin's works, and we have talked over some points for the sermon.

On the death of his widow in 1866, it passed to their son, Reginald Darwin (1818-1892),56 who left it to his son, Admiral Sacheverel Darwin (1844-1900). By him it was bequeathed, still with its original red morocco case, to his half-second cousin, Charles Darwin's second son, Sir George Howard Darwin, F.R.S. (1845

understand Darwin serving as a magistrate not in isolation but as one of very many acts he performed in his community as a gentleman of his social station. Serving as a magistrate was not only not unusual for someone of his place in society, but actually rather typical. Several members of Darwin's family also did so. His half uncle Francis Sacheverel Darwin (1786-1859) was JP and deputy lieutenant of Derbyshire from 1837. Darwin's half-cousin Reginald Darwin (1818-1892) was a highly respected
