Abstract
THE Johns Hopkins University at Baltimore was founded in the year 1876, and Newell Martin left Cambridge, to the personal regret of all his English friends, to become the first occupant of the chair of Biology. This he held during seventeen years, in the course of which the department over which he presided grew from small beginnings to large and extensive laboratories fully furnished with apparatus, animals and privatdocents in the most up-to-date Teutonic style. In the summer of 1893, Prof. Martin was compelled by ill-health to resign his professorship, and in recognition of the value of his work, and as a token of their affection and esteem for him, his American friends and pupils have republished the scientific papers and some of the public addresses which were written and delivered by him during his tenure of the chair.
