✦ Synopsis

died i n Ruthin on 22nd December, 1960. He had been ill for several years and his death at the age of 74 was not unexpected but will none the less sadden his wide circle of friends, among them many in Liverpool, for his connection with Liverpool extended over more than half his life. He was appointed the first holder of the George Herdman Chair of Geology in the University of Liverpool in 1917, and his last geological paper, written not long before he died, appears in this number of the Journal.
