Abstract

On July 7, 1985 over 300 people gathered at the Lake Opinicon Field Station of Queen’s University to dedicate a new building. The opening of this modern laboratory facility was in honom of the retirement of Prof. Ted Brown – a fitting tribute to a man who had dedicated much of his life to research and teaching.
