TO
The Unfading Memory
OF
MAJOR JOHN WESLEY POWELL
THE GREAT EXPLORER

Whose name is inseparably linked for all time with the "Titan of Chasms," the entire length of which he penetrated, revealing its weird and mysterious grandeur; whose fidelity to scientific survey has signally advanced the progress of our country; whose wise foresight in advocating water supplies for arid lands, whose heroism amid hardships and whose persistence of energy and noble purpose forever endear his name to every American and to all who revere the loftiest achievements of science,

These pages are inscribed by

LILIAN WHITING.

"The sun set, but not his hope;

Stars rose; his faith was earlier up."

"What's life to me?

Where'er I look is fire, where'er I listen

Music; and where I tend bliss evermore."

Browning.
