Excerpt from Fossil Plants, Vol. 4: A Text-Book for Students of Botany and Geology; Ginkgoales, Coniferales, Gnetales

Through the death of Dr Newell Arber in June of last year at the comparatively early age of forty-seven Botany and Geology have lost an able and indefatigable investigator. Since 1901, the date of publication of his first paper, he laboured incessantly and with success to advance palaeobotanical science. To his activity the Sedgwick Museum of Geology at Cambridge is deeply indebted, and through his personal influence several younger men acquired something of their teacher's enthusiasm.

The proofs of this Volume were passed for press in June, 1918, but owing to the exigencies of war conditions publication has been unexpectedly and inevitably delayed.
