PREFACE

MY friend and colleague, Mr. Giinther, has asked me to
write a few words by way of Preface to this volume. I am
not sure that any words at all are needed. If any are they
should certainly be few. There are of course some still living
in the University and in the country, who even yet remember
Dr. Daubeny at work in his Lecture Room and in the
Laboratory which bears his name, but they are a small and
rapidly diminishing band. While, however, his personal
memory must more and more fade from among us, and by-
and-by disappear altogether, it may fairly be claimed for him,
as for many greater and even more than for some greater
men, that the result of his effort is still growing and becomes
more and more apparent.

Daubeny was without doubt a pioneer, and a pioneer of
a great army advancing in a noble cause. The study of
Natural Science in Oxford in the first half of the last century
lay for the most part, like the Botanic Garden itself, outside
the wall and circle of the Academic republic, and its pro-
fessors were liable to be regarded as eccentric in more senses
than one. About Daubeny's own personality, moreover,
there would seem to have been always a little, or more than
a little, to smile at, and stories are still remembered of his
amiable foibles and the humorous aspect of his lectures
and experiments, which were not always apparently taken as
seriously as they were meant to be. But he had the ad-
vantage of being a Winchester and Oxford man, trained in
the old humanities, a scholar and a gentleman, uniting simple
piety with liberal views, and, like Acland a little later, he
was able to conciliate opposition and gradually to introduce

IV PREFACE

Natural Science into his College and University in a way
which might have been difficult for a more forceful but less
acceptable advocate. Not that Daubeny was a weak or
superficial person ; on the contrary, he was a man of sound
sense and genuine attainment, and if he held, in those days
of pluralism, three Professorships, he did good work in the
subjects of each and all.

His books on Volcanos, on Roman Husbandry^ on The
Influence of the lower Vegetable Organisms in the Production
of Epidemic Disease, his early welcome to Darwinism in his
tractate on The Sexuality of Plants — these and many other of
his writings have long since been duly appreciated. As a
writer and observer, he has received then probably adequate
recognition. But to his efforts as a teacher, and to the
value of the institutions and collections which he left as
his legacy to subsequent generations, less justice has been
done. To repair that omission is the purpose of the present
volume.

The long list of those who attended Daubeny 's lectures,
first at the Ashmolean Laboratory and afterwards at the
Botanic Garden 1, will come as a revelation to many both in
Oxford and outside, in regard alike to the number and the
distinction of the names which it contains.

That this frequentation was entirely prompted by enthu-
siasm, or was altogether spontaneous, must not be asserted.
But the genuine popularity of these lectures is still vouched
for by living witnesses. And even a ' soft option ' may also
be an interesting option, and an agreeable course may
also be an instructive course. Mr. Gunther has indicated
a few of the most distinguished auditors, but old Oxford
men will note in addition names such as those of Bishop
Hobhouse, ' Charlie ' Neate and Mr. Edward Poste, of
Oriel, Father Benson, Sir Edmund Monson, and Mr. E. H.
Pember, K.C.

The subsequent history of the Laboratory which Daubeny
founded and to some extent endowed, continues to be inter-
esting after its originator had passed away. It has at times

somewhat anticipated the University teaching. It has afforded
a home and opportunity for many stray Professors and
students, and been the scene of not a little excellent original
research.

The first function it fulfilled when Yule and Lawson
arranged their courses of lectures on Biology in conjunction
with those of Ray Lankester.

As to the second it is sufficient to mention among the
names of men of mark who have worked within its precincts
those of H. G. Madan, Wyndham, Yule, Pike, Jeffrey Bell,
Burdon-Sanderson, Gotch, Lazarus Fletcher, Harold Dixon,
and Veley. Popular lectures to artisans have also been given
within its walls ; and it has frequently been of much assistance
to the College School.

But its normal employment has been to act as a College
Laboratory. Such was its main work under the long and
happy rule of Mr. Edward Chapman1, such it is still under his
pupil, Mr. R. T. Giinther, the author of this volume, with
his Assistant Lecturer, Mr. Nevil Sidgwick, Fellow of Lincoln
College, and the present Daubeny Curator, successor to old
'John Harris/ Mr. J. J. Manley, on whom the University
only the other day conferred the well-deserved distinction
of an honorary M.A.

If evidence is required of its further usefulness it will be
found in the Meteorological Records and list of Researches
contained in the Appendices A and B to this volume.

The College Praelectorship of Natural Science, instituted
by Waynflete as part of his original foundation, one of the
earliest endowments of the kind for Natural Science in the
University, and indeed in the country, for it was older than
any of the Oxford Professorships, had been held by useful and
distinguished men before Daubeny. But it may fairly be
said that Daubeny notably extended its usefulness. It is
now merged in the Waynflete Professorship of Chemistry.

The College, which in 1847 made a substantial contribution
to the sum to be laid out by Daubeny, has just enlarged
and reconstructed the building then erected. It is to be

hoped that the results to be achieved in it may be in
proportion. But in the meantime the beginning of a new
order seemed a fitting moment for gathering up the story of
the work done in the smaller building. Of the history of
Natural Science in the University this story forms only a
chapter, and to that of Natural Science generally it is, to
use R. L. Stevenson's happy expression, 'but a footnote.'

Yet as such it appeared to the College worth putting on
record and giving to the world. If that opinion was correct,
and if it should find any acceptance and prove of any use, our
thanks are due, and we trust those of the reader will be
added, to Mr. Giinther for the diligent and complete manner
in which this record has been compiled, and to Mr. Giinther
and Mr. Chapman for the plates which give an additional
interest to the volume.

HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY
AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE

THE land upon which the Daubeny Laboratory Buildings History of
stand was originally part of the low-lying water-meadow, e l e*
afterwards named Parys Mede, which lay to the east of the
city, and was not built upon because it was frequently flooded
by the Cherwell. The level of this part of the meadows
had, however, been artificially raised upon more than one
occasion, for in digging trenches for the foundations of the
new building of 1902, some six or seven feet of made ground
containing abundant potsherds, were dug out before the firm,
untouched subsoil was reached.

Our forefathers of the Middle Ages allowed the Jews to
use this waste land for a burial-ground, as we learn from
the earliest records we have of this spot, dating from the
twelfth century1, which were confirmed m the seventeenth
by Lord Danby, whose experience is recorded by Wood:
* Sufficient testimonies of which area or coemitery of the
Jews . . . were the number of men's bones that were found and
dug up at the foundation of the Physick Garden wall 2 ' ; and
more recently Dr. Daubeny himself, when the foundations of
the Laboratory Building were dug, came upon a great number
of human bones. Dr. Daubeny's assistant, John Harris,
witnessed their reinterment under the evergreen oak, near the
Bridge, in a sawpit which had been used by the builders,
and later on a full-length skeleton was exhumed near the
Herbarium by Mr. E. Chapman, when a trench was dug
for the purpose of curing the dampness of the walls.

1 'In 1177 the Jews of Oxford had a cemetery without the East Gate,
where the Tower and South Side of Magdalen College now stand ; after-
wards this was transferred to the opposite side of the road, in the present
Botanical Garden, where a mass of human bones was dug up in 1642.' —
Boase, Oxford, p. 24.

2 Wood, MS. fol. 228 b. Cf. Chandler's Life of Waynjlete, p. 89, note.

2 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

The history of the ground can be continued in Wood's
words : 'After their [the Jews] expulsion from this nation it [the
cemetery] came to St. John Baptist's Hospitall adjoyning, who
imployed it as a churchyard to bury their dead. But that
Hospitall being dissolved and turned into Magdalen College,
ceased from that use and was imployed as a plot of green-
soard or meadow ground by a tenant of that college their
[= there] living.'

The land which thus came into the possession of St. John's
Hospital was probably only the lower portion of Parys Mede1
which lay next the Cherwell and was bounded on the west
by 'the way leading from East Bridge to the feild behind
Merton College'; this way was presently to be known as
Trinity Lane, and is the present Rose Lane. Wood's further
statement that the Hospital owned and sold property nearer
the East Gate, he contradicts elsewhere by asserting that the
property was purchased from St. Frideswyde.

During the fourteenth century the frontage of Parys Mede
was divided into tenements with buildings very like those
shown in the earliest plans of the city (Agas, 1578). On the
west side of the lane the Trinitarian Friars had acquired
a chapel and house at St. Frideswyde's Gate2, and from
them the lane took the name of Trinity Lane ; and it would
appear from the position of the inscription ' sometime Trinitie
Hall * in Agas's map, that either the prior and brethren of
the Order 'being minded to enlarge their territories/ or
their successors, the principal and scholars of Trinity Hall,
had a lease of tenements on the east side of Trinity Lane.
If any one of these buildings were attached to Trinity Hall,
it is likely to have been the two-story house (marked in
Hollar's map, 1643) which was shown standing in 1675 *n
Loggan's map, very near the north-western angle of the

1 'Note that all the south side of this street [East Bridge Street] was
a meed anciently called " Parys." ' — Marginal note to Wood.

2 Also called Teckew Gate. The tradition of the ancient gate might
seem to be preserved in the name, Magdalen Gate House, which stands on
the site of the chapel of the Trinitarians, were it not that this name is of
recent origin, having been given during the tenancy of Mr. E. Chapman.
The site was acquired by Perrot, 1546, who pulled down the chapel and
house and built a ' barn, stable, and pigstie.'

lawn between the High Street and Rose Lane. Besides this
house, two small cottages opposite the present Magdalen
Lodge and two others in Rose Lane remained in existence
for several years after the formation of the Physic Garden
in 1623-33.

The next chapter in the history of the site of our The
Laboratory is concerned with that of the Physic Garden,
which is by far the most ancient establishment connected with
Natural History in Oxford, for the collections of Tradescant
and of Ashmole did not become the property of the Uni-
versity until 1683, twenty-one years after the foundation of
the Royal Society.

For the history of the origin of the Garden we may
again refer to Wood, who tells us how ' Henry, Lord
Danvers, Baron of Dauntsey in the county of Wilts, and
Earl of Danby, giving to the University the sum of £250
in money to purchase a piece of ground for a nursery
of phisicall simples for the University, bought the said
mede containing about 5 acres of ground of the present
tenant the$eof anpl presently after of the College it selfe
A.D. 1621, to be held of them by lease. Afterwards much
soil being conveyed thither for the raising of the ground, the
day for the laying the first stone therof was designed. Which
being come, viz. S. Jeamses Day [35 July] 1622, the Vice-
cancellor, Dr. Peirce, about 2 of the clock in the afternoone
togeather with the proctors and most of the doctors of the
University solemnized it with great ceremony. For in the
first place Mr. . . . Dawson, a phisitian of Broadgates, speak
there an elegant oration ; then Dr. Clayton, the King's Pro-
fessor of Phisick, another ; and last of all the Vicecancellor ;
with the offering severall sums of money according to the
antient fashion.

* Afterwards the said earl proceeded in building of it and
enclosing it with a very faire wall of freestone, and in the
front therof next to East Bridge Street a comly gatehouse/
['The wall about it was finist, 1633, ut 'm Gest. cane. Laud,
p. 65.' — Marginal note.]

The wall with which the College permitted Lord Danby to

enclose the Garden, about twelve feet high and two feet thick,
was found to be sufficiently strong to serve as the lower part
of the south wall of the new Laboratory of 1902. The original
drip moulding has been retained in the ground-floor room.
House of In the original plan for the Garden the Gardener or Pro-
ofBotany. ^essor was expressly enjoined to reside at the Garden, and
to enable him to do so conveniently an official residence
was built near the end of the south side of the old East
Bridge: it is marked in Hollar's map of the Garden (1643).
In the Oxford Almanack for 1772, which gives us a view
of the old East Bridge Street at that point, the street front
of the house is shown, and the same view represents the
sign of the Noah's Ark Inn which stood, together with
'certaine poore cottages and scattering houses1,' along the
strip of land in front of the Laboratory facing the College.
The New The erection of a new bridge over the Cherwell com-
Bndge. menced in 1772 resulted in various alterations on the south
side of the street. To improve the approach to the bridge
by raising the roadway, it was found necessary to demolish
the house belonging to the Professor of Botany (1795), and the
site of the house, like the terrace in front of Balliol College
in the Broad, was surrendered to the Commissioners of the
Paving Act, to enable them to improve the street, and to pile
the stones necessary for its repair.

By this widening the plot north of the Garden wall was
reduced in width by the amount it had previously projected
in front of the site of Trinity Hall or of the Magdalen Gate
House ; a projection which is indicated in Loggan's map.
No doubt the existing lime-trees were planted soon after.

The then occupant of the Botanical Chair, Professor
Sibthorp, rinding no other shelter suitable for the Sherardian
Collection of Botanical Books and Herbarium, which had
till then been kept in the official residence, caused the eastern
greenhouse to be converted into a Library and Lecture
Dr. Room.

Professor ^uc^ was ^e conclition °f things in 1 834, when Dr. Daubeny,
of Botany. M.D. and Fellow of Magdalen College, who had been Pro-

1 Leonard Hutten.

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 5

fessor of Chemistry since 1 822, was chosen to succeed Sibthorp
as Sherardian Professor of Botany. With characteristic energy
he immediately applied himself to bring the Garden into a
state of efficiency better suited to the progress the science
had made ; and, even before delivering his inaugural lecture,
he had presented a report to the Visitors of the Garden, and
had set on foot a subscription to enable the University to
bring the proposed reforms into effect.

The improvements at first contemplated by Professor
Daubeny did not involve any serious alterations on the
north side of the wall of the Garden. The western green-
house, which had no glass roof, and was very indifferently
supplied with light from windows in the southern front, having
been erected about a century previously when the construct-
ing of greenhouses was but ill understood, was to be trans-
formed into a Lecture Room, new glasshouses were to be
erected, and it was to be explained to the Street Commis-
sioners that their room was of greater value than their
company or rather than that of their heaps of stones ; and
by the eviction of these it became possible to erect at the
back of the Library (once a greenhouse), a new residence * for
the Professor of Botany, which was used as such from about
1836 until the death of Dr. Daubeny in 1867, when it was
devoted exclusively to the Herbarium.

During the twelve years, 1822-34, which had elapsed Professor
between the election of Dr. Daubeny to succeed Dr. Kidd in .0JrGheTn"
the Aldrichian Chair of Chemistry and to the Sherardian Early
Professorship, he had produced the books by which he is best works and
known—his treatise on Volcanos (1826), and the Intro- lectures-
duction to the Atomic Theory (1831), as well as several
original memoirs published in Jameson's Edinburgh Philo-
sophical Journal and in the Philosophical Transactions. He
had filled the office of Bursar and of Vice-President of
Magdalen College. We still possess a record of attendances
at his Professorial lectures, which were delivered at the

house was that all the living-rooms were made to face the north. ' Dove

6 HISTORY OF THE PAUBENY LABORATORY

Laboratory under the Ashmolean Museum, dating from the
winter of 1822, when he started with thirty-two pupils,
who increased to forty-one in the next year1. (See
Appendix E.)

Among the signatures of those who attended these early
lectures on Chemistry, we find the names of E. B. Pusey and
Mark Pattison, of Tait, Whately, and Thomson, the future
archbishops of Canterbury, Dublin, and York, of Sir John
Bennett Lawes, the originator of the Rothamsted Agricultural
Experiments, and of Sir Edmund Head, who became Governor-
General of Canada. In 1836 we read that Henry Acland, not
content with a single course, paid a three-guinea fee for an
( unlimited attendance * at the lectures on Chemistry : it is not
to be wondered that he became Regius Professor of Medicine
and Sir Henry Acland, Bart. In the 1837 list we find the
signature of John Ruskin ; and in others the names of H. G.
Liddell, R. W. Church, Nevil Story, afterwards Maskelyne,
Frank Buckland, H. J. Coleridge, Sir Frederick Gore Ouseley,
and many others which will be found in the Appendix.

Dr. Daubeny, no doubt fearing that his acceptance of
a second Professorship might lead the ill-informed to pass an
unfavourable criticism on pluralists, made use of the oppor-
tunity afforded by his inaugural lecture to point out how
slender was the emolument derived from either post, and to
show that many inquiries of a chemical nature can scarcely be
prosecuted without the assistance of a Botanical Garden, and
that, on the other hand, some of the most important problems
in vegetable physiology require for their elucidation the aid of
chemical science.

1 It is interesting to compare these numbers with those of the attendances
at scientific lectures during a previous epoch. By referring to a tract by
Edward Tatham, Rector of Lincoln, entitled, A New Address to the Free
and Independent Members of Convocation (Oxford, 1810), the curious reader
may find that the average attendance at the public lectures in Natural
and Experimental Philosophy during fourteen terms in the years 1773-7
was close upon fifty, whereas in 1809 the attendance at similar lectures had
dropped to fourteen in the Lent term and to so small a number in the
Easter and Michaelmas terms that no class was held. The Rector attri-
butes the falling off in the attendance at these lectures, as well as at the
public lecture on Chemistry, to the operation of the new statute respecting
Public Examination which had just been passed.

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 7

That his' new duties at the Botanical Garden did not lead
to the neglect of his chemical teaching or studies is proved
by his frequent revision of his lectures, of which the manu-
scripts are preserved in the College Library, and by the
appearance of a Supplement to an Introduction to the
Atomic Theory (1840). Although much time and thought
must have been spent upon the buildings and improvements
to the Garden already mentioned, yet before two years had
passed he had completed a very important research on the
Action of Light upon Plants and of Plants upon the Atmo-
sphere ; and thus he anticipated Draper by some eight years
in demonstrating that the light belonging to the red end of
the spectrum is most effectual in promoting the evolution
of oxygen by plants. Some of the glass vessels still bear
stains of the port wine which was used as a red screen.

The geological results of his Italian and American journeys
in 1834 and 1837-8 were first given to the Ashmolean
Society, and many specimens of volcanic rocks were added
to his collections.

In 1 840 the high regard in which his many qualifications Professor
were held found expression in his election to a third Profes-
sorship — that of Rural Economy — which he held until his
death.

During the seven years following, his researches were mainly
directed to the scientific aspects of certain branches of Agri-
culture, and the results were published in several papers in
the Journal of the Royal Agricultural Society, his three
lectures on Agriculture were even translated for the benefit
of Italian farmers. Chief among these chemical agricultural
labours were investigations On the Chemical Constituents of
Crops, On the Scientific Principles by which the Application
of Manures ought to be regulated. On the Use of Spanish
Phosphorite, as a Manure. The Memoir on the Rotation of
CropS) and on the Quantity of Inorganic Matter abstracted
from the Soil by Various Plants under Different Circumstances ',
was first delivered in 1845 as the Bakerian Lecture to the
Royal Society.

In his agricultural researches, Dr. Daubeny was no doubt

8 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

much influenced by the work and genius of his great friend
Liebig1, who had won his Professorship at Giessen in 1824,
soon after Dr. Daubeny's election to the Aldrichian Professor-
ship, and who published his great work on Agricultural
• Chemistry in the very year of Dr. Daubeny's appointment
Liebig's to the Rural Economy Chair. In 1842 Liebig made a sort
of triumphal tour among the agriculturalists of this country,
expounding his views on the need of chemical knowledge.
Lord Playfair2 has stated that one of the immediate effects
of Liebig's campaign was to induce colleges to open labora-
tories for teaching chemistry. Chief among these were the
laboratory of the School of Mines in Jermyn Street and the
laboratories of University College and of King's College,
London. A great wave of laboratory building swept across
this country. In 1845 the Royal College of Chemistry, now
merged in the Royal School of Science, South Kensington,
was founded, and it is very likely that the first inception
of the Daubeny Laboratory is to be attributed, at any
rate in part, to Liebig's visit to this country a few years
before.

3 My friend Mr. Webb has drawn my attention to a passage in Henry
Kingsley's Ravenjhoe, which is strongly reminiscent of the defective ventila-
tion of the old Ashmolean Lecture Room : * He lay here one day when
the doctors came down from London. And one of them put a hand-
kerchief over his face which smelt like chemical experiments and somehow
reminded him of Dr. Daubeny.' — Gh. Ixii.

researches, whether on agricultural or vulcanological subjects
or on mineral waters, were, it was but natural that he should
also feel the loss of time consumed in going backwards and
forwards between his house at the Physic Garden, where
his duties chiefly lay, and his gloomy Lecture Room beneath
the Ashmolean Museum. He determined, therefore, to erect A new
a Lecture Room and Laboratory close to the Garden, and the j^j^6
work was actually commenced in 1848, the year after he had required,
held the office of Bursar at Magdalen College.

No doubt his large and ever increasing collections of
minerals, rock specimens, books, and physical instruments, as
well as his enlightened ideas of the needs of the efficient
teaching of science at Magdalen College, of which he had had
sole charge as Praelector since 1820, determined the main
lines on which the building was planned.

The conditions on which Dr. Daubeny was permitted by Daubeny's
Magdalen College to build are stated in the College Order for £2SjJte
November 12, 1847 : College in

'Dr. Daubeny having requested permission to build a l847.
Lecture Room on the ground adjoining the Physic Garden,
the spot on which it is placed to be at any time resumable
by the College, it is agreed to grant him leave to build the
Lecture Room on the proposed spot near the principal gate
of the Garden at the distance of at least three feet from the
wall. It is further agreed to allow Dr. Daubeny, his heirs
or assigns, the sum of £282, being a moiety of the sum
proposed to be laid out by Dr. Daubeny in case the Society
shall at any time hereafter within the period of twenty years
find occasion or think it proper, after six months' notice, to
resume the whole of the ground into their own hands, but
after that time the College shall have the option of assum-
ing it without any payment.'

Daubeny died December 12, 1867 — just over twenty years
from the date of this order, but not quite twenty years from
the date of the erection of the building, of which he speaks in
his will as 'the new buildings erected by me in the year 1848,
opposite to Magdalen College, on ground belonging to the
said College.'

10 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

Descrip- The building was erected on the north side of the central
B°ndin west greenhouse of the Physic Garden. It was more than a
mere lecture room, being a rectangular brick building of two
stories ; it was covered with stucco in a plain classical style.
That it was not originally contemplated to carry the building
much higher than the greenhouse on the south side of the
wall seems to be indicated by the fine cornice round the
lower part of the building. The upper story of four rooms
must, however, have been added soon after, as a domicile for
the Curator of the Building, and Dr. J. F. Payne, now
Physician at St. Thomas's Hospital, has informed me that
he occupied these rooms during his year as Probationer
Fellow, and took pupils l there. I can well remember a red
bedroom paper on the walls of one of the rooms.

On the ground floor a central doorway (now a window)
opened into the Lecture Room, measuring forty-one feet long, by
twenty feet broad, by sixteen feet high, which was surrounded
by a gallery for cupboards for Physical and Chemical apparatus
(Plate 2). A large doorway in the middle of the south side
led to the Botanical Lecture Room, and at the east end was
Dr. Daubeny's private study, containing the Geological Col-
lections both Palaeontological and Volcanic (Plate 3). The
upper part of this room was also surrounded by cupboards
and drawers in which the Collections of Chemical and
Mineralogical Specimens were preserved, and it was divided
from the lower part by a floor.

In the Lecture Room cupboards were carried round the
whole wall space, and even across the upper parts of the win-
dows, thus materially contributing to the gloom of the interior2.
In accordance with the College Order, the main fabric stood
four feet away from the Garden wall. The reason for this
detail is not easy to imagine, unless it be that among the
Fellows some harboured a design for the eventual demolition

1 One of Dr. Payne's pupils was Mr. Edward Chapman, who, as he has
himself informed me, read physiological chemistry with Dr. Payne in
preparation for his final schools in 1863.

2 That this was part of the original design would seem to be indicated
by the fact that, before the alterations made in 1902, the upper window-
sashes had never been provided with sash-lines and weights.

of the building, while others considered that fumes might
penetrate the wall and damage the plants in the greenhouse
on the south side. Whatever the reason, certain it is that
the space between the outer wall of the Laboratory and the
wall of the Physic Garden was eventually covered with a glass
roof, and made to enclose three staircases, five flights of
stairs in all, which placed the upper rooms in communication
with the ground floor.

Two of the staircases were probably introduced at about
the time (1853) when, the greenhouse1 at the back of the
Laboratory having become a Lecture Room for the Professor
of Botany, a Botanical Museum 2 was built over it, with part
of the funds collected for the improvement of the Physic
Garden by Daubeny.

A fine equatorially mounted telescope of five-inch aperture Telescope
by Cooke was presented to the College in March, 1855, for buildins-
which a new stand was ordered in the following June ; and in
December, 1856, it was ordered that a building for the new
telescope should be erected * contiguous to the wall of the
Botanic Garden according to the plan of Mr. Buckler, at an
estimate of ,£185.'

The space between the Telescope vault and the west wall Work-
of the Laboratory was occupied by a workshop of rather Meteoro-
flimsy structure and an Observer's Room, whence a staircase logical
gave access to the telescope above, and in which were after-
wards placed all the instruments connected with meteorology.
Both workshop and Apparatus Room were pulled down when
the new building of 1902 was erected. Outside the window
of the latter room stood a large aquarium, a gift to the
College, which for ten years was tenanted by some golden
tench which had been presented by the Duke of Bedford
in 1875.

The building had hardly been finished six years when Resigna-
Daubeny resigned the Chair of Chemistry to a younger man, ^hair of

Mr. (afterwards Sir Benjamin) Brodie, in order that he might Chem-

three staircases on the north side of the wall. The doorways in the party
wall were bricked up in Professor Lawson's time.

12 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

devote his time and strength more particularly to his duties in
connexion with the Chairs of Botany and of Rural Economy,
which he held conjointly until death. Consequently the
Laboratory was only ready for use at a time when its founder
had already lived those years of his life which were the most
productive of scientific research. His published investigations
on Volcanos, on Mineral Waters, on the Atomic Theory, and on
various problems of Vegetable Physiology had long had a great
and well-deserved reputation in the scientific world. It was
therefore hardly to be expected that from the new Laboratory
should issue the results of investigations equal in importance
to those which marked the most fertile period of his scientific
activity. During this period, however, it had been the prin-
cipal Chemical Laboratory in the University *.

Like many other leaders of science Daubeny found the
later years of his life more and more occupied with affairs
of administration and busied with literary rather than with
experimental work. And, stirred by the religious contro-
versies of the times (1860), he too contributed his share to
theological literature.

Lectures. As soon as the new Laboratory at Magdalen was ready
for occupation he appears to have ceased lecturing in the
vaults of the Ashmolean 2, which seems to have been in 1 849,
when the names of the Choristers, of Frederick Bulley, then
a Fellow of the College, and of many Magdalen men,
appear in the Lecture Lists, and the Professor published
a Syllabus of a course of Lectures on the Principles of
Inorganic Chemistry.

Although the continually increasing burden of new and
expanding duties had compelled Daubeny to resign the
Professorship of Chemistry in the University in 1854, yet he
was so deeply impressed with the advantages to be derived

1 The Christ Church Building, left vacant by the transfer of the Lee's
anatomical collection and of Dr. Acland's osteological and pathological
collections to the University Museum, was not equipped as a chemical
laboratory and lecture room until 1866. Some physical apparatus of an
elementary kind was added soon after the appiontment of a third Lee's
readership in 1869. The Balliol Laboratory was not opened before 1879.

Appendix to the Guide to the Botanic Garden, p. 13.

from this science that in 1855 he delivered an address to
the Royal Institution On the Importance of the Stiidy of
Chemistry as a Branch of Education for all Classes. And
he put his theory into practice by personally instructing, as
the College Praelector of Natural Philosophy1, the under-
graduates of Magdalen College in Chemistry until his death,
in a series of annual courses of ' Catechetical Lectures/ com-
menced on October 28, 1855 2.

The average attendance was generally about ten ; and to
judge by an interleaved copy of Fownes's Treatise of Chemistry
in the Laboratory, the lectures were largely based upon that
manual. During the winter months, when impaired health
compelled him to live away from Oxford in the warmer
climate of Torquay, the course was continued by Mr. T. H. T.
Hopkins, Fellow of Magdalen College, during the winters
of 1858 and 1860; by Mr. H. G. Madan, Fellow of Queen's
College, in 1865; and by Mr. A. G. Girdlestone, Demy of
Magdalen, during Lent, 1867. The last lecture given by
Daubeny seems to have been on October 24, 1867. During
his last illness Mr. Girdlestone again carried on the work of
teaching from October 31 to December is, 1867.

The chemical researches which were carried out by Dr. Dau-
Daubeny in the Magdalen Laboratory were chiefly of an j3 tny>«
analytical nature, and related to the agricultural problems searches,
upon which he was engaged. He experimented upon samples
of Barley grown in soils containing varying amounts of potash
and soda; he examined the effect of Rocks of various geo-
logical ages upon the produce of barley sown in them ; and
the power of the Roots of plants in rejecting poisonous or
abnormal substances presented to them ; and a few months
before his death he published a paper on Ozone and on its
disengagement by the leaves of plants. A list in extenso of
his published researches will be found in Appendix D.

1 Under the original statutes of Magdalen College the Praelector might
lecture either in divinity or natural philosophy at the discretion of the
College officers.

2 The MS. of one of the first of his College lectures, delivered in 1820, is
still preserved in the Library, together with a pile of oft-revised MSS. of
later date.

14 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

Much of the apparatus used by him in these and also in his
earlier researches is preserved ; and so we possess a larger
collection of chemical glass, &c., of the first half of the nine-
teenth century than is commonly to be found in modern
laboratories, as well as a collection of instruments of consider-
able value from the point of view of the development of
chemical apparatus and manipulation. The extreme thick-
ness of the glass eudiometers and the magnitude of the
gas-holders define a well-marked period in the history of
pneumatic chemistry which followed the period of Cavendish
and Black. And it is wonderful what accurate results this
clumsy apparatus could be made to yield in skilful hands.
• Of particular interest are the variously tinted shades of
coloured glass employed in his classical research on the
Action of Light upon Plants and of Plants upon Atmosphere,
and which are therefore available either for repeating the
experiments or for a more searching spectroscopic examina-
tion of the colour than Daubeny made.

Collec- Although Daubeny 's main idea when planning his new
tions. building was to provide the College with a room where
lectures on Chemistry might be delivered and illustrated with
greater safety, convenience, and popularity than in the College
Hall, he was probably also guided by the desire to provide
a suitable depository for his scientific treasures, the accu-
mulation of a lifetime.

The collections are enumerated in a catalogue printed in
1 86 1, entitled A Catalogue of the Philosophical Apparatiis,
Minerals, Geological Specimens, &c. in the possession of
Dr. Daubeny, Praelector of Natural Philosophy in Magdalen
College, and now deposited in the building contiguous to the
Botanic Gardens, belonging to that Society.

Dr. Daubeny's original arrangement of the collections was
for the most part preserved intact until I8931, when Mr.
Gunther found certain changes to be necessary on account
of the deterioration of much of the physical apparatus by
the corrosive fumes of the Laboratory. The more important
portions of the collections were disposed as follows :

1 Although several pieces of apparatus were found to be missing.

Astronomical Apparatus. The 5J-inch refracting telescope
by Cooke was mounted upon the brick arch constructed by
Buckler.

There are also in the Laboratory two smaller telescopes,
a si-inch refractor of 44 inches focal length, purchased
from Dollond in 1836 by the Rev. Joseph Cox for £78 15^.,
and a 4-inch Gregorian reflector, having a silver plate
engraved with the arms of Magdalen College and of the
donor, and bearing the following inscription : Coll. Magd.
Oxon. D.D. Ricardiis Persehowse de Walsall in Com. Stafford.
Armiger. Hujus Collegij Sup. Ord. Commensalis &» A.M.
A.D. 1755.

Physical Apparatus for the performance of experiments on
Voltaic Electricity, Pneumatics, Hydrostatics, Light and Heat,
was contained in the cabinets i-x in the gallery of the Lecture
Room, while the Static Electricity and Electro-magnetism
instruments were grouped in cabinet xxiv in the Apparatus
Room, which, being built against a flue, was always dry
enough to preserve the frictional machines in working order.
Among -the treasures of the collection is the early form of
Spectroscope by Elliott1, with immovable telescopes and a
hollow glass bottle prism which was presented to Dr. Daubeny
by Bunsen.

The Collection of Chemical Substances found a place in the
remaining cabinets x-xiii in the Lecture Room and also in
the cabinets against the east wall of the Apparatus Room.
The series of specimens had evidently been collected with
considerable care, but owing to the imperfect stoppers to the
bottles, to loss or obliteration of labels, or to corrosion by
fumes, it is of little value now and will have to be recon-
structed.

The other cabinets, xvii-xxiii, in the Apparatus Room
contained Organic Products and apparatus for analysing the
same, as well as apparatus for showing endosmose and ex-
osmose.

The Glass, Earthenware, and other Apparatus for ordinary
use in the Laboratory was chiefly contained in the cupboards
1 Repaired by Elliott in 1903.

I 6 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

which were built against the north wall in the gallery, and
which completely covered the upper parts of the windows,
making the room very dark. The equipment was particularly
rich in apparatus for pneumatic chemistry, which was no
doubt due to the great interest taken by Dr. Daubeny in the
nature of the gases given off by growing plants, volcanos,
and mineral waters.

The Collection of Minerals was arranged in seventy-seven
drawers below the cabinets in the Apparatus Room, in accor-
dance with the chemical system of Rammelsberg 1, under the
following heads :

A. Inflammable Minerals.

B. Earths not combined with silica.

C. Minerals consisting of silica, either alone or in com-
bination with water.

D. Silica in combination with bases.

E. Silicates with salts of other acids.

F. Silicious minerals of indefinite composition.

G. Metallic ores.

Two manuscript catalogues of the years 1835 and 1849 are
still preserved among the Daubeny papers.

The collection is not at present in its original condition, for
a representative series of the best specimens was picked out
by Mr. T. G. Heathcote Wyndham, the first Natural Science
Fellow of Merton College under the new statutes, and
arranged after the modern system in six cabinets especially
constructed for their reception under the superintendence of
Mr. Hopkins. Unfortunately the labelling and cataloguing
of the collection was left undone owing to the premature
death of Mr. Wyndham.

In the same room were preserved the marvellous collection
of mineral and sea waters in still more marvellous bottles of
all shapes and sizes. 'Mineral waters, as indications of
chemical processes going on below the surface of various
countries, excited his earnest attention. He carried about
a considerable apparatus for examining these waters in their
freshest attainable state, and would busy himself for days

1 Handiuortcrbucb des chemischen Thetis der Miner alogie, Berlin, 1841.

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 17

in evaporating and analysing on a large scale. Thus he
worked in his quarters at one of the hotels in York, just as
if he were in his own laboratory at home ; and by his busy
scrutiny of waters in the volcanic country of central France
and the south of Italy, he provoked the suspicious credulity
of the natives, who thought he was poisoning their springs,
and endangered his personal safety.' — Professor Phillips :
Obituary Notice of Dr. Daubeny^ Proc. Ashm. Soc. 1868.

An early type of bottle (1844) for taking samples of water
from the depths of the ocean was also kept here.

The Geological Collections, being those in which Dr.
Daubeny had the greatest interest, were preserved in the
cases which surrounded his private room on the ground floor.
Some idea of the size of the collections may be gathered
from the fact that the Palaeontological specimens arranged in
stratigraphical sequence filled 140 drawers, the Plutonic and
Metamorphic Rocks filled thirty-four drawers, the Volcanic
rocks, submarine and subaerial, filled 126 drawers, and lastly,
the Miscellaneous Collection, consisting of suites of specimens
illustrating the geological structure of particular districts,
filled 115 drawers.

It is impossible to speak too highly of the method which
was adopted for rendering individual specimens in the collec-
tions accessible for reference. The printed catalogue gives
a list of the more important specimens contained in each
drawer under general headings, and often references to
memoirs in which descriptions of them may be consulted.
Secondly, a fuller manuscript catalogue contains detailed
lists of the contents of each drawer ; transcripts of these
lists are also placed in the drawers, in which ihe specimens
are arranged in rows and numbered consecutively, a new
series commencing with each new drawer. And lastly, there
is an interleaved copy of Dr. Daubeny's Monograph on
Volcanos with references to the drawers which contain the
specimens described in the book.

Additions to the collections have since been made by
Mr. T. H. T. Hopkins and by Mr. R. T. Gunther, Fellows of
the College. Among the most interesting of the Miscel-

l8 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

laneous Collections are those of the rocks collected during
Daubeny's tour in the United States in 1837-8, Dr. Sibthorp's
rocks collected in Greece and the Levant, Phosphorite from
Estremadura, and other specimens collected in Spain in 1843
by Dr. Daubeny, and 107 specimens of rocks brought home
from one of Captain Parry's three Arctic Expeditions, and
purchased at Dr. Buckland's sale.

All these Collections, together with his valuable Library of
Scientific Books, passed into the possession of the College
after his death, in accordance with the clauses in his will :
Daubeny's < I give and bequeath to the President and Scholars of
Will. Magdalen College absolutely all my minerals and geological
specimens, and the philosophical apparatus in the New
Buildings erected by me in the year 1848, opposite to
Magdalen College, on ground belonging to the said College,
together with the printed books on chemical and scientific
subjects, and also the best of my microscopes and all its
appliances, and also my chemical diagrams.

* And I give to the said President and Scholars one thousand
pounds, three pounds per cent, stock, in trust to pay the
dividends or annual produce thereof as a salary to some
person to be appointed as Curator by the President for the
time being, during good behaviour, to take care of the afore-
said specimens and apparatus. And in the selection of such
person I recommend, but do not require, that my assistant
John Harris shall be first appointed, being satisfied that
a person not a member of the University will be best suited
to have charge of the Collection. And considering that
the value of the Collections, which I give to the College
including scientific books, philosophical instruments, speci-
mens of chemical products, rocks and minerals, must have
cost me considerably more than three thousand pounds,
I trust that the College will adopt such measures as may
be necessary to prevent them falling into decay, for which
purpose I have left the interest of one thousand pounds
stock to a Curator as aforesaid, that he may be responsible
for the integrity of the Collections, and render them as useful
as possible for the purposes of instruction. The scientific

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 19

books will find an appropriate place in one or both of the
two rooms over the Laboratory, which were occupied by
Mr. Masters, and which after my death will be the property
of the College. I would also recommend that an annual
visitation be appointed by the President to examine into the
state of the Collections from year to year.' — Extract from
Dr. Daubeny's Will. Proved January 18, 1868.

Dr. Daubeny died on December 12, 1867, and was buried
in College in St. John's Quadrangle, near the west door of
the chapel. A white marble tablet upon the west wall of the Memorial
ante-chapel preserves his memory : Tablet.

After Dr. Daubeny's death, the history of the Laboratory
is interrupted for a brief period. There is no doubt that
Mr. Hopkins, who had been a pupil of Dr. Daubeny, and had
lectured for him, continued to work in it, and give instruction ;
but we have no official record of an appointment till that of
Mr. Edward Chapman as Lecturer in 1869 ; though attached E. Chap-
to the College, he was not made a Fellow until 1883, when ™8a6n' 94
he was elected under the powers given to the College by
the new statutes of the Commission of 1881.

From 1869 to 1894 Mr. Chapman, first as Lecturer and
then as Tutor, was charged with the responsibility of the
scientific instruction of the members of the College, which
he carried on in the Laboratory, associating with himself

20 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

Combined teachers in other Colleges by a system of combined lectures,
Lectures. Merton, Jesus, Trinity, Wadham, and Balliol at various times
entering into the combination. During the early part of his
tenure of office he entirely renewed a large portion of the
collection of chemical substances and reagents, and labelled
them in accordance with the modern nomenclature. On the
institution of the Preliminary Examination in the Honour
School, he commenced and carried on for many years a series
of lectures on Physics, a subject since treated specially at the
Millard Laboratory.

Report to An account of the machinery at work for the teaching of
sio^on8" Phvsical Science at Magdalen College in the year 1870 was
Scientific printed in an appendix to the reports and minutes of evidence
Instruc- of the R0yai Commission on Scientific Instruction 1.

Mr. Chapman then stated, for the benefit of the Commis-
sioners, that the method of teaching was :

1. 'A course of advanced lectures intended for candi-
dates for honours in the Physical Science School. These
lectures combine formal teaching in a class with attention to
the individual requirements of each candidate in private.

2. * A course of lectures on elementary chemical physics,
intended for beginners. These lectures are not given with the
view of training men necessarily for the Physical Science
School, but as a means of general education, in the hope
that an intelligent interest may be excited in the mind of the
student, and habits of observation and accuracy established/

In conclusion Mr. Chapman laid great stress on the impor-
tance of supplementing the teaching work of the professors of
the University ' by taking care that each student in Physical
Science shall receive the same help and attention from his
College Tutor as that enjoyed by the classical or mathe-
matical candidate. I am the more confirmed in this view,
as I have found that such a system often reaches men who,
but for the fact that the subject was brought to them in
College, would never have taken up the study at all.

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 21

' Considerable experience in tuition has convinced me that
Physical Science as an instrument of education will flourish
the better in Oxford the more it becomes an integral part of
our College System/

The replies which the Commissioners received from the
various Oxford Colleges show very clearly the pioneer part
which the Daubeny Laboratory, under Mr. Chapman's direc-
tion, took at this time in supplementing the professorial
teaching centred at the University Museum.

In 1874 a new and important development in the teach- Biological
ing of the University took place, when Messrs. Chapman, Teachin&-
Lawson, and Yule arranged courses of instruction in bio-
logical subjects on new lines. To these courses of instruction
our physiological teaching on modern lines traces its origin,
and owing to them the Daubeny Laboratory came by the
name of the Physiological Laboratory.

The Biological Courses at the Daubeny Laboratory were,
no doubt, intended to supplement the deficiencies in the
University Courses. In a syllabus of about 1875, we see
that a minute practical study was made of the Plasmodium
of Aethalium, of Amoeba, Actinosphaerium, Monocystis, and
two other Gregarines, Paramoecium, Vorticella, Acineta,
and Hydra. Another syllabus included Zygnema, Trade-
scantia, Yeast, Pleurococcus, Gloeocapsa, Palmella, Nostoc,
Oscillatoria, Bacterium, Chlamydococcus, Volvox, and Spiro-
gyra. Courses on Histology and Physiology were arranged
by Mr. Yule.

The lectures were open to Magdalen, Merton, and Trinity
men, and though the beginnings were modest, yet might the
originators with justice have quoted the words, * We shall light
such a candle as shall never be put out/ at any rate we hope
not in Oxford.

In 1876 a series of more popular lectures and practical Lectures
demonstrations in Physiology, by Mr. Yule in conjunction with s°ns rt
Professor Lawson on Vegetable Physiology, and Mr. Chapman
on Chemical Physics, was delivered to a class of artisans
in the Laboratory, which was lent by the College for that
purpose. A lecture was delivered every Saturday evening, at

22 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

seven o'clock, of about an hour's length, and the two follow-
ing hours were employed in practically verifying by dissection
and experiment the leading points of the lecture, for which
purpose each student was supplied with a working-place to
himself and the apparatus necessary for his work. The
numbers were restricted to eight, and Mr. F. J. Bell, now
Professor of Comparative Anatomy at King's College, London,
assisted both in the teaching and preparation of the lectures.
C. Yule's Mr. C. J. F. Yule, although originally a Brackenbury Scholar
^ical" of Balliol, migrated to Cambridge, where, as a Scholar of
Course. St. John's College, he had studied Physiology with Michael
Foster, and was known by a paper on Urari when elected
to a Fellowship at Magdalen. On his return to Oxford
he found that work along modern lines was impossible in
the University Laboratories, for Professor Rolleston, although
nominally the Linacre Professor of Physiology, was devoting
his chief attention to Comparative Anatomy, and had not
followed the latest developments of Physiological Research.

The thorough nature of Yule's Physiological Course is in-
dicated by the syllabus compiled by him in 1878, entitled
Syllabus of a Years Course of Practical Work in the Physio-
logical Laboratory of Magdalen College ', Oxford. Circulation
and Respiration were studied in the Michaelmas Term, the
Nervous System in the Lent Term, while the Easter Term
was devoted to Digestion and Animal Chemistry.

From this development in the teaching the need for modern
instruments of precision naturally arose, and the College
voted in 1876 a grant for the purpose of procuring them.
Of the apparatus which was then added to our collections we
cannot speak too highly, for without the Oertling Balance,
the Elliott-Thomson Galvanometer, and the Chronographs,
much good research could not have been accomplished.

Mr. Yule still further increased the efficiency of the Labora-
tory for Physiological Research, by causing it to be registered
as a place where experiments upon living animals could
be carried on. At his request the College passed the
following Order : ' That the College consent to their Labora-
tory being registered under 38 and 39 Victoria, Cap. 27, for

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 23

the performance of experiments under the said Act ' (Meeting
of October 13, 1877). The licence was granted by the Home
Office on October 25, 1877.

The University Physiological Laboratory had not so much
as been thought of in those days, and was not opened for
work until 1885. Many therefore availed themselves of the
opportunity for quiet study which the College Laboratory, the
only Physiological Laboratory in Oxford, afforded. Among
them my friend Dr. Dixey, who, in relating some of his
experiences of these early days, enlarged on the benefit he
had obtained from it, and extolled Yule's undoubted genius.
We find that on February 9, 1882, the latter, applying for
a renewal of the licence, could write, ' I am at present the
only person teaching Physiology in this University.' And
Professor Burdon-Sanderson, on coming to Oxford from
University College, London, in 1882, as Waynflete Professor
of Physiology, found the Daubeny Laboratory suitable for
his experimental work. There was no laboratory connected
with his Chair.

The small rooms on the upper floor were at this time
devoted to Physiology, and the westernmost was specially
fitted up as a dark room for Professor Burdon-Sanderson, and
there, assisted by Dr. Gotch, he carried on his researches on
Dionaea 1.

Meanwhile, work in other branches of science was not Physical
neglected, for in the summer of 1876 Mr. Lazarus Fletcher, Teaching,
the present Keeper of the Mineralogical Department in the
British Museum, on his appointment as Millard Lecturer
in connexion with Magdalen, Merton, and Trinity Colleges,
conducted a course in Optics and other branches of Elemen-
tary Physics in the Laboratory. When in 1879 he became
an assistant at the British Museum, Mr. Jupp, a mathematical
Demy, and later science master at Clifton College, acted as
his deputy, and at a later date, Mr. Dixon, now Professor of
Chemistry at Owens College, Manchester.

24 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

H. B. ^ Professor Dixon's connexion with our Laboratory is best

Research explamed m his °wn words —

on Rate ' I had been working on the explosion of gases in the
sfonn?10" Christ Church Laboratory, 1876-9. On my election to
Gases. a lectureship at Balliol and Trinity I continued the work
in the Balliol Laboratory, and made some attempts to
measure the rate of explosion of gases. I think it was
in 1 88 1 that my friend, C. J. F. Yule, Fellow of Magdalen,
showed me round the Magdalen Laboratory, and explained
the electric chronograph with which he had been doing
physiological experiments. This instrument seemed to be
adaptable to my wants, so as he was no longer using it,
I asked him to let me try it on my gases. This he allowed
me to do, and I soon found it would accurately record the very
rapid movements of the explosions. Accordingly I got leave
from the College to work in the Laboratory, and I worked
there for about two years. In 1883 or 1884 I bought the
chronograph from Magdalen, and removed it to Balliol.

' During 1882 and 1883 I used to go to the Magdalen
Laboratory in the afternoons, and sometimes evenings.

' I used the chronograph to determine the initial rate of
explosion of mixtures of carbonic oxide and oxygen with
different quantities of moisture, and also for measuring the
rate of the " explosion-wave " in gases under different condi-
tions. My results were published in a memoir, " On the
Conditions of Chemical Change in Gases," Phil. Trans. R. S.
1884, and in the Bakerian Lecture for 1893, "On the Rate
of Explosion in Gases," Phil. Trans. 1893.

* I occasionally met the Rev. T. H. T. Hopkins in the
Laboratory, and he became interested in my work. He gave
me a piece of apparatus which had belonged to Daubeny.
I remember watching with him some of the sunset " glows "
(the after-effect of the eruption of Krakatoa) from the
Laboratory windows.' — Extract from a letter from Professor
H. B. Dixon to the author.

A tradition is extant in the Laboratory that there was a
great depletion of chemical glass during Mr. Dixon's sojourn
there, on account of the destructive nature of his research.

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 25

It is always a matter of gratification to the Biologist when,
for the purposes of his own research, he has invented or im-
proved some instrument, with such success that by its means
a new field of discovery has been opened in the more exact
sciences of Chemistry and Physics. The Physiologist, in striving
to measure the minute space of time required by a nervous
impulse to travel along its conducting path, had brought the
electric chronograph to such perfection that Dr. Dixon was
able to measure the velocity of explosion waves in gases
by it, and Mr. Jervis-Smith has been able to adapt the same
instrument to record the velocity of bullets at the moment of
leaving the barrel of a rifle. The microscope also owes its
perfection chiefly to the requirements of Biological Research,
and the best test-objects for it are still supplied by the or-
ganic world. And, finally, the Sprengel pump, without which
electric glow-lamps would have remained undiscovered, was
the invention of a Physiologist.

It is by such means that the Biological Sciences are able
to repay part of the debt they owe to Chemistry and Physics,
and we are pleased to think that our Physiological Labora-
tory should have contributed towards the payment of that
debt in providing Dr. Dixon with the instruments by which
his valuable results were obtained.

To continue the account of the teaching in the Laboratory Instruc-
in recent times, it only remains to be said that the resources p°"cj."cal
of the institution have been chiefly devoted to Practical Chemis-
Chemistry. The courses of instruction which were originally try-
arranged under Mr. Chapman have become more and more
popular, and are being ably conducted by Mr. J. J. Manley,
who succeeded Mr. J. Harris as Daubeny Curator in 1888 ;
and many men from other colleges, being attracted by the
facilities afforded for study, have applied for admission.
Owing to limited space the instruction is advisedly principally
confined to Quantitative work.

A new departure was made in Lent Term, 1889, when School-
the Laboratory (built in 1863) belonging to Magdalen Col- boys*
lege School was refitted for Analytical Chemistry by the
Rev. W. E. Sherwood. Lectures in Chemistry, Optics, Heat,

26 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

Electricity and Magnetism were arranged for the boys studying
Science at the School, and have been delivered by Mr. Manley
in the College Laboratory twice a week. The lectures cover
such portions of the subjects as are required for the Oxford
and Cambridge Higher and Lower Certificates.

Pre- In 1891 the Regulations of the Board of the Faculty of

Fhysic7 Natural Science were modified, so as to require from candi-
dates for the Preliminary Examination in Physics a practical
knowledge of certain elementary physical experiments. Mr.
Chapman obtained a special grant from the College for the
purchase of apparatus suited for these new requirements, and
the easternmost room on the upper floor was adapted for
a course of instruction.

The wisdom of rendering the Laboratory equipment fitted
for instruction in the subjects for the Preliminary Examina-
tion was strikingly exemplified when, a few years after, the
University Laboratory was so crowded that several under-
graduates commencing the subject could not be accommo-
dated there.

Physical Some ten years later a new departure was made in the
Ghem- course of Physical Chemistry which was arranged by Messrs.
Wilson and Manley. For many years the subject of Physical
Chemistry had been required of all candidates seeking honours
in the Final Chemistry School, but there was no adequate
provision in the University for practical instruction in this
most productive field of chemical study.

Need for In 1901 the main fabric of the Daubeny building was in
extension. practically the same condition as it was in the middle of the
nineteenth century. A roof over the main staircase had been
replaced, and a high-pressure water heating apparatus had
been introduced instead of the old low-pressure boiler, which
had remained in a useless state for many years, but no
structural improvements had been effected.

The need for extension and rearrangement arose, firstly,
because the number of students receiving practical instruction
in Chemistry and Physics in the Laboratory had largely
increased, and secondly because the purposes for which it
was desired to use the building were found to interfere with

AT MAGDALEN COLLEGE 2^

one another, and the ventilation was bad. Beginners in
Chemistry, preparing for Preliminary Examinations, worked
in the same room as advanced students engaged in quantitative
operations of a refined order ; consequently the results obtained
by the latter were often in danger of being vitiated by the
deleterious fumes liberated by the former. In spite of all
precautions the vapours permeated the cupboards and cabinets
in the gallery, and rendered them unsuitable for the collec-
tions and apparatus contained therein. All brasswork left
in them became deeply corroded. And occasionally the
obnoxious fumes, ascending to the upper parts of the building,
would enter the rooms devoted to the apparatus and opera-
tions of the Physicists. In short, the improvement of the
Laboratory building was imperative.

A Committee appointed by the College Order of March 13,
1901, to consider the question of the extension of the Daubeny
Laboratory, reported as follows :

* They are agreed in thinking it is desirable to improve Report of
the Daubeny Laboratory with a view to carrying on more
effectively the teaching and practical work at present done
there, mainly in Preliminary Chemistry, but also to some
extent in Preliminary Physics.

6 The alternative methods of doing this appear to be, either
to add to the existing premises by building on toward the
west, on the ground at present occupied by sheds, &c.,
between the existing premises and the telescope tower, or
entirely to gut and rearrange the existing premises.

'The Committee recommend the former course as leaving
the present building available for present purposes other than
the teaching of Chemistry, including the teaching of Physics,
and the provision of a Museum for the Daubeny apparatus,
and also as furnishing space for what is much needed, a
Lecture Room, while providing at the same, time more and
better accommodation for the teaching of Chemistry and for
Chemical research in the premises to be added.

' They recommend that if the College decides to entertain
the proposal to improve the Laboratory, they be reappointed
with instructions to obtain exact drawings and estimates for

28 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

such additions and rearrangement, and also to report on the
probable cost of maintenance of the Laboratory as so im-
proved' (January 25, 1902).

The new At the March Meeting the first-mentioned plan for the
lory0™" improvement was adopted, and the new Laboratory was
commenced before the end of Lent Term, 1902, between the
old Lecture Room and the telescope, and was finished by the
end of the following Long Vacation. The foundation stone
was laid over a dated fragment of the Times and a new coin
of the realm, and bears the following inscription :

LAPIS • HIC . ANGVLARIS
A . THOMA . HERBERTO . WARREN

ANNO . PRAESIDATVS . XVIlMo
A • D . IX . KAL . MAI . IACTVS . EST.

The new building consists of two laboratories one above
the other, an entrance hall, and a cellar for stores and the
heating apparatus. Access to the upper story was by
a new staircase which, to save space, was inserted between
the old building and the wall of the Botanical Garden. The
old doorway in the middle of the north side of Dr. Daubeny's
Lecture Room was replaced by a window ; a doorway to
communicate with the new hall being opened in the place of
the end window shown in Plate 2. The little brick-paved court
to the east of the old building was roofed over and is used
as a still-room for the preparation of distilled water ; and the
chamber under the telescope, provided with a wood-block
floor and lighted by a new window cut through the western
wall, has made an excellent workshop.

The principal changes which have been effected in the
interior are the conversion of the large Laboratory into a lecture
room, by the removal of the benches and cupboards to the
new room on the ground floor, and also by the removal of
the cupboards which covered the windows above the north
gallery, shown in Plate 2. The floor, weakened by dry rot
owing to deficient ventilation, had to be almost entirely
renewed. The Science Tutor's Room, formerly Dr. Daubeny's
study (Plate 3), was equipped for the performance of experi-
ments in Physical Chemistry, for which the situation near the

ground rendered it better adapted than were any of the rooms
on the upper floor, the easternmost of which, until now the
Physical Chemistry Room, became the private room of the
Tutor in Natural Science. The other three rooms, used as
the Photographic, Curator's, and Elementary Physics rooms
respectively, were left undisturbed.

The new Chemical Laboratory on the upper floor, measuring
thirty-nine feet long by sixteen feet broad by eleven feet high
was designed as a beginners' laboratory. The positions and pro-
portions of windows and intervening piers were dictated by the
number and breadth of the benches, which it seemed advisable
to introduce into the space at our disposal. Flues for carrying
away fumes from draught hoods were made of three-inch
drain-pipes inserted in the walls, during the building. The
walls for a space of three feet above the benches are covered
with panes of ' opalite ' glass keyed on to cement, producing
a surface which is easily kept clean. The draught cupboard is
of glass and wood, built upon a bed of slate — which, in our ex-
perience, has proved to be more durable than lead — between the
splays of a window so as to be thoroughly well illuminated.

The bench-tops are of well-seasoned kauri pine, painted
beneath with a coat of red lead paint to prevent shrinkage or
expansion due to alterations in the hygrometric state of the
air, and treated above with paraffin wax melted into the pores
of the wood with a flat iron, as a protection against corrosion.
Cupboards and drawers beneath the benches for the students
have been dispensed with on account of the great difficulty in
preventing them from being used as receptacles for apparatus
put away unwashed ; the bench-tops have thus been kept
at a lower and more convenient height than is customary
in chemical laboratories.

The room on the ground floor, which is somewhat shorter
than the upper room, was intended as a research laboratory.
It has been furnished almost entirely with material from the
old Laboratory. At the present time it is being used by
Mr. N. V. Sidgwick, Fellow of Lincoln College, for the pre-
paration of the experiments in illustration of his lectures on
Organic Chemistry, and by Mr. H. E. W. Phillips.

THE METEOROLOGICAL RECORD.

Meteoro- THE earliest weather records kept at the Laboratory which
Records. ^ave been preserved were those made by Dr. Daubeny him-
Daubeny, se^> an<3 they consist of barometric and thermometric readings
1861-7. entered in small 8vo diaries. But inasmuch as the learned
doctor only recorded his own personal observations, and
was often away from Oxford, his meteorological record from
1861 to October 31, 1867 — though fairly complete as regards
his own environment — lacked continuity, for observations on
the climate of Rome or Naples would be sandwiched between
records of Oxford weather. Nevertheless his observations
of the quantity of ozone present in the atmosphere, both at
Torquay and at Oxford, were of especial value, and a sum-
mary of them is contained in a paper On Ozone and its Dis-
engagement by the Leaves of Plants, published in the Journal
of the Chemical Society, January, 1 867.

J. Harris, After Dr. Daubeny's death there is a gap of a year in the
1869-73. record, and then a more systematic series of observations with
standard instruments was commenced. The installation of
the instruments and the method of observation were due to
Mr. T. H. T. Hopkins, but the observations were made by
John Harris.

In 1869 Mr. E. Chapman took over the superintendence of
the Meteorological Observations, and in this he was assisted
by J. J. Manley after the retirement of John Harris.

The Daubeny Laboratory is situated about 191-62 feet1
above sea-level, and therefore rather lower than the Radcliffe
Observatory. The difference of twenty feet in the altitudes of

Survey Bench Mark at the foot of Magdalen Tower.

the lowest rain gauges at the two stations seems to account
for a perceptible difference in the annual rainfall observed.

graduations are so arranged that zero on the scale corresponds to a mean
height ; it is about 186 feet above sea-level.

the surface is read from a thermometer placed there by the
observer on his way to the rain gauge.

6. The height at which the water stands is noted by refer-
ence to the river gauge, and during floods the rise or fall is
observed and recorded several times daily.

7. The direction and force of wind, the kind and amount
of cloud, and the weather, as required by Beaufort's scale, is
entered.

8. The ozone paper is removed from the ozone cage,
a fresh piece fastened in, and the amount of ozone entered
according to the ozone colour scale ; the exposed paper
having been dipped in distilled water before comparing it
with the scale.

The observations are entered in oblong tables measuring
1 6 inches by 10 inches. Each table is constructed for one
month's observations, and the variations of the barometer,
thermometer, and rainfall are summarized in curves on the
opposite page.

The continuous series of observations commenced by Tempera-
Mr. Hopkins, and carried on and much extended by Mr.
Chapman, were found to be of great value when the British
Association appointed a special Committee, consisting of the
Hon* Ralph Abercromby, Dr. A. Buchan, Mr. J. Y. Buchanan,
Mr. J. Willis Bund, Professor Chrystal, Mr. D. Cunningham,
Professor Fitzgerald, Dr. H. R. Mill (Secretary), Dr. John
Murray (Chairman), Mr. Isaac Roberts, Dr. H. C. Sorby, and
the Rev. C. J. Steward, to inquire into and to report upon the
Seasonal Variations of Temperature in Lakes, Rivers, and
Estuaries in various parts of the United Kingdom, in co-opera-
tion with the local societies represented on the Association.

The records of the temperature of the Cherwell kept at the
Daubeny Laboratory were warmly commended by the Com-
mittee, who directed especial attention to * Mr. Chapman's
magnificent series of mean monthly temperatures, which
illustrate very clearly the variations in the seasonal swing of
temperature in water in one of the most extreme average
climates of the British Islands, taking its low altitude into
account. It serves not only to record the variations in

D

34 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

temperatures of the Cherwell, but to suggest the range of
deviations from normal seasonal temperatures to be expected
in any case. Thus we are warned not to assume the mean
of one or two years as being the real mean temperature of
any exposed body of water' (British Association Report for
1891, p. 19). And the second series of averages for twelve
years, which we now publish, demonstrates this still more
clearly.

Observations of the temperature of the Cherwell were
made regularly every morning since 1878 by Mr. Edward
Chapman or by his assistant, and have been continued since
his resignation in 1894, up to date. The ordinary meteoro-
logical observations having been made at the same time, make
it possible to compare river temperature, air temperature, and
rainfall. The river temperature recorded below is the mean
of daily observations at 10 a.m., the air temperature is
the mean of the maximum and minimum thermometer in
the shade for the previous twenty-four hours, and the rainfall
is the amount in inches which fell in the previous twenty-
four hours.

The length of this series of observations gives it peculiar
value in affording an indication of average conditions. The
average air temperature for the twenty-two years was 49°\5,
the average water temperature at 10 a.m. 5o°-9, or i°-4
warmer than the air ; the mean annual rainfall for these years
being 23-6 inches. The year of lowest air temperature was
1887, with 47°-6, the average water temperature for that year
being 49°-8 and the rainfall 18-78 inches, very exceptionally low.
The lowest mean water temperature was in 1888, 49°-o, when
the mean air temperature was 47°-9 and the rainfall 27-39
inches. The highest air temperature was 5i°-3, the mean of 1893,
when the water temperature was also highest, 53°-5, and the
rainfall was 16-51 inches. In 1890, the year of the next lowest
rainfall, when only 17-03 inches fell, the temperatures of air
and water were almost at their average (49°-o and 5o°-8 respec-
tively); while in 1903, which was the wettest year, with 35-14
inches of rain, the air temperature was nearly normal (5o°-r),
and the water temperature was also very near the average

APPENDIX A 35

(5o°-7). The difference between the average temperature of
the warmest and coldest year recorded was only 2°-5 for the
water.

The highest mean temperature of the water for any month
was 6g°-2 in September 1893, in a month with a low rainfall,
but in the year of the highest average air temperature. The
lowest mean temperature of the water was 32°-4 for January
1891 (air 32°'6), but the lowest air temperature was 29°- 2 for
December 1 890, when the water had a mean of 33°«3.

The difference in average temperature of water for the
same month in different years was greatest in the months of
annual maxima and minima. The hottest June was I2°'7
warmer than the coolest June ; the warmest January was i o°-6
warmer than the coldest January. But it does not clearly
appear that at the time of annual average temperature the
difference was least ; for the warmest April was 9°-3 and the
warmest September 12° '-3 above the temperature of the coldest
month of the same name.

On the average the air temperature came nearest the water
temperature in the winter months, notably in November and
January, when they almost coincided, and the two tempera-
tures diverged most in the summer months, April to July,
when the difference averaged 2°«3. During the twenty-two
years of observation the average monthly air temperature
was higher than the average monthly water temperature at
10 a.m. on forty-six occasions. Of these ten occurred in
January, nine in February, ten in November, and seven in
December, or thirty-six in the winter months ; four were
in March, one each in April, May, July, and August, and two
in October. In no June or September, between 1882 and
1903, has there been an instance of air being warmer than
water on the average of a whole month. Of course, in the
observations now recorded the comparison is made between
average air temperature for the whole twenty-four hours, and
average water temperature at 10 a.m. only.

RESEARCHES CONDUCTED IN THE DAUBENY LABORATORY IN RECENT
YEARS, WITH REFERENCES TO THE JOURNALS IN WHICH THE
RESEARCHES HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED.

1888. December. The spectroscopic examination of the ash of a
mould (Aspergillus m'ger) which had been watered with
a weak solution of a zinc salt. It was found that a small
quantity of zinc had been taken up by the plant. The in-
vestigation was carried out by Mr. MANLEY at the request
of Dr. G. BUCKMASTER.

1891. Summer Vacation. Mr. MANLEY made a quantitative examina-
tion of a large number of juices from various plants for invert
sugar. Professor VINES read a paper upon the subject at
the Meeting of the British Association in the same year.

pp. 208-9, 1895.
1895-6. A series of experiments were commenced by Mr. MANLEY

APPENDIX B 49

in order to ascertain the rate of the change which starch
solutions of definite strengths undergo when treated with
specially prepared diastase in the presence of various salts.
The work upon this subject is still incomplete.

1897. Mr. F. P. ARMITAGE brought to a successful conclusion a

redetermination of the atomic weight of Boron by a method
which had been attempted by the late Mr. HOSKYNS-
ABRAHALL, a former demy of Magdalen College.

F. P. ARMITAGE, The Atomic Weight of Boron, Proceedings of
the Chemical Society, xiv. pp. 22-3, 1898. The full MS. of
this valuable work is preserved in the archives of the
Chemical Society.

An examination of the absorptive power of volcanic tufa was
made by Mr. G ANTHER, and a chemical analysis of samples
of the same rock was completed by Mr. MANLEY.

Oct., Nov., 1897.

1898. Summer. Mr. MANLEY ascertained the values of certain

physical constants of samples of faulty rum for Mr. Veley.

V. H. VELEY, Faulty Rum. Oxford University Press.

The specific gravity of a sample of water brought from the
salt lake of Urmi in Persia by Mr. GUNTHER was accurately
determined by Mr. H. N. DICKSON, and the boiling-point,
refractive index, and saline contents of the same water were
measured by Mr. MANLEY.

1899. Summer Vacation. In order to ascertain whether the degree

of salinity of a sea-water could be measured by an optical
test with as close an approximation as by the specific gravity
method, Mr. MANLEY examined some samples of sea-water
obtained by Mr. DICKSON.

1899-1900. During the Long Vacations of these years, Mr. H. E. W.
PHILLIPS commenced a piece of work on the electrical con-
ductivity of phosphoric acid.

1900. During the early months of this year Mr. H. HILTON, Fellow of

Magdalen, commenced some observations on Variable Stars
with the 5 J inch Cooke Refracting Telescope.

1901. Easter Vacation. In continuation of his work on sea-waters,

Mr. MANLEY made determinations of certain of the physical

constants of natural, diluted, and concentrated sea-waters.

APPENDIX C

ADDITIONS TO THE COLLECTION OF APPARATUS.

SINCE the death of Dr. Daubeny many additions have been Collec-
made to the collections of instruments belonging to the tlons*
Laboratory, additions rendered necessary by the ever-varying
requirements of instruction and examination, as also by the
continual development of science, and in some cases special
apparatus have been acquired which was necessary for
particular research work carried out in the Laboratory. A
few specimens have also been added to the collections.

The chief acquisitions of apparatus, taken in chronological
order, are : —

1867. Meteorological and Physical Instruments.

1869. Wrought-iron Digester tested to stand a steam
pressure of 500 Ib. to the square inch. (Presented to the
Laboratory by Mr. Chapman.)

1872. Series of Anatomical Preparations in illustration of
Professor Rolleston's Forms of Animal Life, which was
prepared by Mr. Charles Robertson, formerly Demonstrator
to the Linacre Professor. The preparation of the exoskeleton
of the Lobster, which has been added to this series, was made
by Mr. Chapman.

1874-6. Apparatus for Physiological Experiments.

Among the instruments purchased was an excellent
Thomson's Reflecting Galvanometer by Elliott, which has
been of the greatest use to us, and which has also been
borrowed by Professor Gotch for use at the Museum ; also
a first-rate Long Beam Balance by Oertling, the possession
of which enabled Mr. Armitage to perform his very accurate
redetermination of the Atomic Weight of Boron.

1892. Physical Apparatus necessary for the performance
of certain elementary physical experiments, a practical
acquaintance with which had been required by the Board

late President of Magdalen College and niece of Dr. Daubeny, that at one
time the undergraduates attending the lectures used to make bets with one
another concerning the number of times it was possible to enter their
names on the record of attendances at the same lecture without attracting
the notice of the learned Professor.

130 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY

REGISTER OF PERSONS, NOT BEING MEMBERS OF MAGDALEN
COLLEGE, WHO HAVE WORKED WITH MR. J. J. MANLEY l
IN THE DAUBENY LABORATORY SINCE 1893.

A large proportion of those whose names occur in this list have
attended the evening courses of practical instruction. Ever since the
commencement of these courses under Mr. Manle/s superintendence
they have become increasingly popular, and a very valuable adjunct
to the ordinary classes. So much so, that but for this opportunity
many men, some of whom have been Elementary Schoolmasters,
would not have been able to read for the Honour Chemistry School.

It is to be hoped that, for the benefit of this class of student, and
also in the interests of others, the University will find means to open
laboratories to those who wish to devote the evenings to practical
work.

1893. Liddell, Henry Andrew; Non-Collegiate; B.A. 1896;

Head Master of Wesleyan School, Oxford.
Judge, Thomas; St. John's, I Chem. 1896; Professor of

Chemistry at Bangkok.
Phillips, Harry Edward William; Non-Collegiate, II Chem.

1895; Science Master of Boys' High School, Oxford,

and Training College for Girls, Banbury Road, Oxford.

1 Mr. Manley received the degree of Honorary M.A. on December 8,
1903, and the Public Orator, on presenting him to the Vice-Chancellor,
made the following speech :

Insignissime Vice-Cancellarie, vosque egregii procuratores :
Praesento vobis spectatum et bene instructum vinim, Joannem Job
Manley, per annos XVI. officinae Daubeniensis apud Collegium S.M.
Magdalenae curatorem : qui singular! habilitate praeditus et scientiae
physicae rudimentis imbutus mox tirocinium posuit et ad investigationes
altiores suopte se ingenio contulit et scriptis exposuit. Quorum quidem
scriptorum neque titulos neque argumentum facile est coram vobis effingere :

„, The original MS. Registers consist for the most part of columns
of signatures and lists of names, of fen without initials, and sometimes
hardly to be deciphered. In printing them in the form of Appendix E,
we have added certain biographical information with the intention of
facilitating the identification of the names, but without any pretence to
completeness or to uniformity of treatment. While selecting such material
as was most readily accessible to us, we have endeavoured to indicate by
date of matriculation or of degree the academical status of each per son at
the time he attended the lectures. If no name of a College be stated after
a persons name, he may be presumed not to have been a member of the
University. The initials (D.N.B^)show that some account of the individual
is to be found in the Dictionary of National Biography. // must also be
stated that in cases where the same name appears at intervals for a
number of years, we have only recorded the first entry, so that no attempt
has been made to distinguish between persons who worked in the Laboratory
for a prolonged period and those who only attended for a single term.

The errors in the lists, both of omission and of commission, would have
been much more numerous if we had not enjoyed the help of many of our
colleagues, and especially of Messrs. Chapman, Turner, Webb, and
Wilson.
