Only recently did we hear of the death of this excellent landscape gardener, to whom so many of the pretty gardens about Philadelphia are indebted for their landscape beauty. He will be remembered by many horticulturists who visited the Centennial Exposition, as he had charge of the laying out of the grounds of many of the departments of the Exhibition. He was a native of Scotland, but came to Philadelphia in 1851, following his profession steadily till a few days of his rather sudden death.
