#OTD John Lewis Russell, American #Unitarian #Minister & Botanist
In 1874, Edmund Willson wrote,
"Wherever this man went to fill a #Pulpit, lovers of #Nature gravitated to him. [They went along] to the #Fields, steep #Hills, and miry #Swamps.
His #Animated talk & kindling eyes as he described the
#Graces of #Ferns and the #Glories of #Grasses & #Lichens quickened their #Love of #Beauty.
He had an ear for the #Mysteries of the #Sea, #Forests, [and] #Moss-coated #Rocks."
