Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir and Correspondence of the Late Sir James Edward Smith, M.D, Vol. 2 of 2 The late Mr. Davall, of Orbe, was one whose fondness for natural science led him to cultivate an acquaintance with the subject of these pages, which soon settled into a warm personal affection on either side, and remained unimpaired through their lives. An Englishman by birth, he was destined by circumstances to reside in Switzerland: but although he lived in a beautiful country, surrounded by objects most pleasing to him, yet he seems to suffer the pangs of an exile whenever he writes to his friend.
