Excerpt from Report of Observations of Injurious Insects and Common Farm Pests During the Year 1890: With Methods of Prevention and Remedy
To Mr. Frazer 8. Crawford, of Adelaide, 8. Australia, whose sound and well-skilled work was so serviceable in his own Colony and so well and so widely known, my tribute of yearly thanks is now (with the regret for his loss shared by his many friends) a tribute also of respect to the memory of an earnest and thoroughly true worker who has passed to his rest. His careful observations, the zeal for the public good with which he was ever on the alert to prevent establishment of dangerous infestations in the Colony, the hearty courtesy and open-mindedness with which all points under discussion were conducted with the cc-operators with whom he was in correspondence at home or abroad, make his loss cause of great regret to his colleagues and friends; and with a grateful remembrance of many years' unfailing assistance and cc-operation, I desire to add my tribute of deep respect to his memory.
