Extract
In his long conduct of the Mineralogical Magazine and Mineralogical Abstracts our Editor has always shown a ready interest and understanding for each new phase of mineralogy as it has appeared, and thus a contribution to any part of the wider realm of mineralogy would fall in the range of Dr. Spencer's comprehending appraisal. At the same time Dr. Spencer's own published work in mineralogy and the style of his abstracts of the works of others show that his personal interests incline to the classical natural history aspect of mineralogy, which gives first importance to exact observations that establish the individuality of new species, improve and extend the knowledge of well-defined species, or disprove the existence of supposed new minerals.
