John Farrah
- ... that the botanist and "great Yorkshire character" John Farrah (pictured) used to reprimand greedy plant collectors in a way they wouldn't forget? Source: Page 103: "Mr Farrah ... a great Yorkshire character" and p.412: "He was ... very severe with those who collected rare plants or anything which might in any way have a harmful effect upon the flora or fauna of the county. More than one over-enthusiastic character has received such a "dressing down" from John Farrah that they will remember it to the end of their days."

This interesting article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:35, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
