But for this defiance of Nature, there might have been many more years of scientific exploration, pleasurable to himself and beneficial to others; and he might have escaped that invalid life which for a long time he had to bear. In his case, however, the penalties of invalid life had great mitigations mitigations such as fall to the lot of few.
Having heard of the Stormontfields' Ponds for breeding salmon, I had a great desire to see them.
