To
Miss ELEANOR ORMEROD
Consulting Entomologist to the Royal Agricultural Society, and
Fellow of the Meteorological Society.

Dear Miss Ormerod,—

For thirty years you have been a pioneer in the fields of agricultural zoology and chemistry, and it may most truly be said that no woman has ever done so much as you have to protect agriculture against its natural enemies. In the special departments to which you have devoted your life, it is universally admitted that you are without a rival.

My little volumes do not compete with work so serious as yours, yet you have gratified me with your commendation of their truthfulness, and you have permitted me the pleasure of dedicating to you this one, in some chapters of which I deal with the classes which are most familiar to yourself.

Believe me to be
Yours very sincerely,
ELIZA BRIGHTWEN.
The Grove, Great Stanmore.
June, 1895.
