WILLIAM PETER DRUMMOND. 
William Peter Drummond was the youngest and_ last 
surviving son of the well-known seedsman, Peter Drummond 
of Stirling. He was born at Stirling in 1838. He and his 
brother George came to Edinburgh and started the business 
of Drummond Brothers, nurserymen and seedsmen, with a 
warehouse in George Street and nurseries at Longfield, on 
ground which has now been feued. He became a Fellow of 
the Society in 1858. On retiring from business a good many 
years ago, he went to America, and remained there for some 
years. Returning to Scotland a few years ago, he resumed 
attendance at meetings of the Society when health per- 
mitted. He died at his residence, 8 Wardie Road, Edinburgh, 
on 18th December 1906, aged 68 years. He is survived by 
a widow and a son, Peter E. Drummond, who is a member 
of the engineering staff at the Gordon Memorial College, 
Khartoum, Egypt.
