Abstract
EDMUND OTIS HOVEY, curator of the Department of Geology and Invertebrate Palæontology in the American Museum of Natural History, had just entered his sixty-third year when he was struck with paralysis in his office and died on September 27. In his younger days Dr. Hovey filled some teaching posts; he was brought by his installation of the mineralogical exhibit of Missouri at the Chicago Exposition to the notice of the American Museum, and entered its service in 1894.
