British scientist:..Professor of Natural History in the University of Edinburgh...Chair of Botany in King's College...head of the Palaeontological department of the Geological Society...The admirable arrangement of British fossils in the Museum, in Jermyn-street, is a portion of the fruits of his labours in this situation...In 1841 he was attached, as naturalist, to H.M. surveying ship Beacon. He had, in concequence of this, an opportuni'y of exploring some of the more interesting and least-known parts of Asia Minor...[however, ] a chronic disease, contracted by Professor Forbes when in the East, re-excited and rendered violent by a severe cold caught last autumn, burst forth with uncontrollable fury, and in ten days proved the immediate cause of his premature death'.
