In his Engineer's Outlook (1933), an “ olla-podrida of reminiscence and exposition and reflection,” he calls it, he has told in brief his life story of much interest and high achievement. His father, of sturdy farmer stock, was minister of the Free Church of Scotland in Dundee. He had “ come out ” in the Disruption of 1843 ; his mother was the daughter of a Glasgow solicitor. The ministerial household, he writes, “ was an entirely happy one . . . the phrase a refined home may sound banal ; it describes what to me was a potent reality and is still a beloved memory.” Alfred had two brothers, both a good deal older than himself. O f these, the senior, Robert, went from St. Andrews to Balliol, became a Fellow and Tutor of St. John’s, Oxford, and after holding various livings, died an Honorary Canon of Salisbury. The second brother, John, was ordained as a Presbyterian minister and went out to Australia in charge of a church at Melbourne. He was a keen mountaineer and had much influence on Alfred, his junior by six years. There was a much younger sister, still living, “ who counted for little to the growing boy, but much indeed later to the man and his progeny.” Such was his family ; his father was absorbed in the heavy calls of his ministerial work ; the care of the boys fell mostly on the mother, who “ made us associate a love of learning with our love of her.” They were at school at Dundee and when the British Association met there in 1867, she took Alfred, at the age of twelve years, to listen to the words of a great master. The interests of the home were chiefly clerical and literary, and he describes himself as somewhat of a sp o rt; his pocket money went in tools and chemicals ; an empty attic was his laboratory ; explosions not infrequently followed his experiments, in which occasionally the domestic cat assisted.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120950885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His father, who was an officer in the Royal Danish Navy, was at that time serving in China. He was educated in Copenhagen and graduated as M.D. in 1900. After taking his degrees, he travelled extensively and visited many laboratories. Amongst these was Oxford, where he worked for a time under Sir John Burdon Sanderson. He was then appointed an assistant to Professor Carl J. Salomonsen, and at the same time demonstrated in bacteriology in the Veterinary School under Carl Olaf Jensen. In addition, he worked in collaboration with Finsen on the action of light on bacteria, protozoa, even a virus, and other substances. With Thorvald Madsen he collaborated at the Staats Serum Institute, Copenhagen, on diphtheria toxin and its derivatives. During this time of intense activity, he published many papers. From the Finsen Institute most of his papers were published in Danish and are therefore but little known in this country, but the work, which was of pioneer character, has stood the test of time and has since been confirmed by other workers, many of whom knew nothing of his results.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114191902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Records of this family in Frankfort can be traced back to 1607 ; but few details are available until about the middle of the eighteenth century, when Juda Joseph started a business in cotton goods, trading principally with England. The business connexion between the Schuster family in Frankfort and the cotton trade in England continued under various members of the family until 1869, when Francis Joseph Schuster (1823-1906), the father of Sir Arthur, transferred the business from Frankfort to Manchester in order to escape Prussian nationality when Frankfort was annexed by Prussia at the end of the Seven Weeks’ War. Francis Joseph Schuster had three sons and one daughter, Ernest (a K.C. who specialized on International Law, died 1924), Arthur, Felix (now Sir Felix Schuster, Bart.), and Paula (married Sir Lawrence Jones, Bart.).

S., is a very severe loss to the science of botany, not only in the Dominion of New Zealand, which he had made his home, but throughout the world. Leonard Cockayne was born at Thorpe House, Norton Lees, Derbyshire —a village some miles five S.E. of Sheffield—on April 7, 1855, and was the youngest son of Mr. William Cockayne, Merchant. His natural history tastes were apparently inborn and in his early days, as I learn from one of his nieces, he pressed flowers. As his brothers and his sister were also keen gardeners, his home surroundings were obviously in accord with his scientific turn of mind, and he must have lived in an atmosphere in which his taste for natural history was encouraged and stimulated. From school he went to Wesley College, Sheffield, and then to Owens College, Manchester, during the session 1872-74, with the original intention of becoming a doctor. There he studied chemistry, botany, plant physiology, zoology, and animal physiology, as an occasional student, but he did not proceed to take a degree nor did he further pursue his medical studies.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125949901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He walked and talked, played lawn tennis well, and chess very well, and was an active member of an ephemeral society formed to read plays. It is said by one of his friends that his unusual mental powers might not have been fully realized at the time had he not been one of a party that played bridge regularly for three years on Sunday evenings, before the game had become a business.

Born in 1850, the son of J. W. Schafer of Highgate and of Hamburg, then a free city, he was educated at Clewer House School, Windsor, and then at University College, London, joining the medical school attached to University College Hospital. There he became marked out as showing exceptional promise by awards of scholarships, at London University, in zoology, and in anatomy and physiology. He gained the medal for Physiology at University College, and in 1871, on the foundation of the Sharpey Scholarship, was elected to the post, which carried teaching duties with it. At the time when Schafer became a medical student, England was far behind France and Germany in Physiological Science. There was no pure physiologist and no physician fully competent to teach the subject. There were no men like Magendie, Bernard, Muller, Helmholtz, Ludwig. But Schafer’s teacher, William Sharpey, although an anatomist by training, was interested in living functions and studied the action of cilia, and microscopic changes in living cells, together with the minute structure of tissues. He filled the Chair of General Anatomy and Physiology, founded in 1836, but there was at his use no laboratory, and he showed no experiments on muscle and nerve, beyond those demonstrated by Galvani fifty years earlier. There was no kymograph, but Sharpey revolved “his dear old hat,” as Michael Foster said, to show the working of one.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"148 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132411410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barlow was educated privately ; he had a taste for physical science and marked mathematical talent, but cultivated the latter unsystematically and perhaps rather too exclusively. Barlow thus found himself in his early thirties with an independence, with a genius for handling geometrical problems of a particular kind, and with ample leisure to devote to the study of crystal structure, which had become the subject of his choice. He had not, however, received that rigid disciplinary training through which most students of physics and chemistry acquire a broad sense of contemporary knowledge of the physical universe. In some respects this was a hindrance, but in others an advantage ; it left a powerful intellect unhampered by authority and led a logical mind to pursue its inquiries into difficult and obscure paths which might intimidate the more conventionally trained.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"276 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131748457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His material circumstances being small, and failing to obtain a post as school teacher, he resolved to study medicine and went to Albany Medical College of Union University whence he graduated as M.D. in 1883, after attending the very short course then prevailing in some medical schools in the United States. He was studious and already widely read as a youth. Being possessed of the good judgement which characterized him throughout life, he was clear in his mind that his training was insufficient to qualify him as a medical practitioner. At Cornell, he worked under two remarkable teachers, Professors Gage and Wilder, with great benefit as he afterwards acknowledged.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127520686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 1874, Dixey was elected to a classical scholarship at Wadham College, Oxford, graduating in 1878.
