He was then? known at that time by Chicago husi- J nets. men as a very succeuiul man of! , attain but another group made up" of geologists and paleontologists knew his as an authority on the fossil) k remains of the Chicago area. In the l F Academy of Sciences in Lincoln Park you will find a number of cabinets;I tilled with fossils collected and iden-j lifted by Mr. Egan duly accredited to him. A number of these were entire-l 1 1y new to science and his name is at- , tached to them. Retiring from busi-l - nvss, now almost a generation ago“ Mr. Egan began to' live with plantsi I of the garden and the lawn and in time another group of horticulturistsl began toLknow of him as an authority, I on life history of various plants.! Through the medium of garden mags-1 zines large audunces learned to look . for his genial discussion of problems} of planting and nurture and little books like "How to make a gardeni of perennials" began to appear from 1 his pen The noted botanist, Profes-i sur Charles Sprague Sargent, headl of the Arnold Arboretum at Boston,; - likewise came to know of him and} from time to time sent him specimens _ to try out in the garden at Egandale.‘ One of the fourteen volumes of Pro-) fessor Saryscnt's great work on the), Silva of North America is largely? given up to the hawthornes and in preparing material tor this topic Professor Sargent came to Highland, Park to see Mr. Egan and to enlist his help in recording observations of the blossoming and fruiting of the, important group of hawthornes na-, tive in this area. Thereafter when) Professor Sargent came to Chicago) he made it a point to see Mr. Egan, and these two men continued their' friendly relations by correspondence, during all these past years. Profes~l sor Sargent was almost the same awe, as Mr. Egan and, alas. died only week before last. By the Way, there was) no mention of the passing of this, eminent American in the wortd's; amines: newspaper and the other 1 Chicago papers. The late Charles L; Hutchinson was a great friend of Mr.” Egan largely because of their mutual love for growing plants. and Mn} Hutchinson again, was an intimate, friend of Prof. Sargent. One of they most valued incidents of Mr. Etran's; birthday last Friday was the coming of a telegram of congratulations‘ from Mrs. Hutchinson. Tribute of Flowers Late Friday afternoon I went to Egandale to ask Mr. Egan's advice as to what rose bushes to recommend to school children, not knowing the significance of that particular day, I was thrilled at the discovery and at: the display of flowers that had been, sent to Mr. Egan, roses, azalies, vases) and jars fi'dcd with cut tlowers, eon; There was one young rose that had' ' on its stern three or four beautiful} blossoms, this being a rose that has not yet appeared in the market. Them there was an original and anonymous' poem which had come through thei mail with only a Chicago postmark.; It was type-written and there was no' clue to itsnrigin. I have begged per-l mission to copy it. But first let me report that Mr. Egan thinks that nit-i less one has a trained nurse to tey after roses and is prepared to lose . out frequently at that, one’s choice of what roses to plant in Highland Parki is quite limited, There are few roses' that can shift for themselves and stir-i vive but among these can be listed) the old fashioned yellow rose of ourl grandmother's garden which is in the market under the name of Persian Yellow and Austrian Friar.
