SynopsisExcerpt from An Introduction to Bacterial Diseases of Plants Wheeler was born in New York; studied in Mexico Academy and the University of Michigan; served in the Civil War; was 20 years in a Michigan country drugstore, Jirhich he made a center of fine intelligence; was instructor in botany in the Michigan Agricultural College for 12 years; and, finally, for 8 years research worker in the United States Department of Agriculture. Spalding was born in New York; pursued high school and academic studies in Ann Arbor, Michigan; was teacher of botany in the University of Michigan for 28 years, broken only by studies in Germany under Detmer, Pfeffer and Brefeld; was investigator for 6 years in the Carnegie Desert Laboratory at Tucson, Arizona; and, finally, endured a long period of forced inaction in Southern California, retaining, however, his clear mind and his scientific interests to the end. Wheeler studied critically the flora of a State, Spalding changed the type of botanical teaching in our secondary schools. Each was my friend for nearly 40 years. The first showed me how to study flowering plants, opened my eyes to the wonders of wood and field and was my companion in a thousand delightful rambles. From him I had also my first lessons in French. The second taught me how to study the parasitic fungus and where to find its literature, often reading it with me when it was in foreign tongues. Each was devoted to the microscope and to the laboratory method. Each served his generation faithfully and now sleeps with his fathers.
