But De Vries answered, sadly, "No Indian has done this. It is the Dutch who have killed your people." And he pointed toward the deep woods close by. "Go there for safety, but do not come here." This was not war. It was murder. A cruel, treacherous act, which the greater number of colonists condemned and the record of which is a dark stain on the memory of William Kieft.
The movement is of the same nature as that of the revolving internodes, and, from the observations of Sachs and H. de Vries, no doubt is due to the same cause, namely, the rapid growth of a longitudinal band, which travels round the tendril and successively bows each part to the opposite side.
Baron de Vries emitted an amused chuckle. "That was very like Ste. Marie," he said. "Ste. Marie is a very exceptional young man. He can be an angel one moment, a child playing with toys the next, and well, a rather commonplace social favorite the third. It all comes of being romantic imaginative. Ste. Marie I know nothing about this evening of which you speak, but Ste.
The answer of modern science is reluctantly obtained, but it is a negative. De Vries and others have indeed originated new kinds that were loudly hailed as new species, and are doubtless as deserving of specific rank as many already listed for years in the treatises of specialists.
When the Dutch De Vries first came into these waters, he came after whales; and even at the present day one of these great water monsters occasionally investigates the western coast of New Jersey, generally paying dear for his curiosity. There were a great many snakes, many of them rattlesnakes, especially in the hilly country.
I love her, but I know those things are true. I wonder if one ought to marry Ste. Marie without flexibility and without humor." "If they love each other," said Richard Hartley, "I expect the other things don't count. Do they?" Baron de Vries rose to his feet, for he saw that the Phidias lady was going. "Perhaps not," said he; "I hope not. In any case, do your best for him with Helen.
Rubrinervis is a mutation from Lamarckiana, chiefly distinguished by red midribs in the leaves and red stripes on the sepals. When propagated from self-fertilised seed it produced about 95 per cent. of offspring with the same characters, and the remaining 5 per cent. mutants, one of which was laevifolia which had been found by De Vries among plants growing wild at Hilversum.
Gregor Mendel, born a peasant boy, trained as a monk, and afterwards appointed Abbot of Brünn, had in the year 1865 published the results of his experiments in breeding, which had been ignored or forgotten until rediscovered in 1900 by de Vries and two others simultaneously.
The fact seems to be, according to other parts of Gates's volume, that there are various races of Lamarckiana in English gardens and in the Isle of Wight, as well as in Sweden, etc., and that these races differ from one another less than the mutants of De Vries and his followers. An important point about these mutations is that their production is a constant feature of Lamarckiana.
He set up a little colony on shore; but it appears that the Indians were very much opposed to this sort of thing, and this settlement was destroyed before long. But De Vries still kept up the whaling business; and in the course of time, getting out of provisions, he left his vessel, and sailed up the river in a small craft which was called the "Squirrel."
