He took the-M.D. degree at Edinburgh University in 1856, and in the following year was selected by Sir Roderick Murchison to accom- pany the Palliser expedition to the Rocky Mountains as medical ocet and geologist. In this capacity it was his good fortune to discover the pass by which the Canadian Pacic Railway crosses the Rockies. He was traveling at the time with such scant supplies that his party werl reduced in the pass to divide among them a single grouse and some odd! ' and ends of fat and candles. This. i however, is not the reason why thd pass is now known as the Great Di- vide. On his -return home, after four years of hardship and adventure, he "was recommended by Sir Roderick Murchison to the New Zealand au- thorities, who were seeking. a V geo- logical expert.
