Excerpt from Edward Bowen: A Memoir I need not mention seriatim those colleagues and pupils of Edward Bowen who have helped me in this task, and without whose willing assistance it could never have been accomplished. The usual expres sions of thanks have a formal air, and I am there fore unwilling to use them to those who have assisted me in these outlines of a portrait of one of the noblest and best men whom any of us has ever been privi leged to know. It will have been to them, as to me, a sad pleasure to do whatever could be done by us for the memory of one who will always hold a place by himself in our recollections. We are only too well aware that we 'shall not look upon his like again.' I owe it to the courteous co-operation of Messrs. Macmillan, Messrs. Chapman Hall, the Editor of the 'journal of Education, ' and the Controller of His Majesty's Stationery Office, that I have been able to make use of some of the matter which is included in this volume.
