The Society will observe that this obituary includes many names 
of great distinction in learning and science. In other circum- 
stances it would have been a great pleasure, as also I feel it to 
have been my duty, to present to this meeting a sketch of the life 
of these deceased Fellows. But, called on to prepare my address 
with brief time to do so, and overwhelmed, too, with unusual 
University duty, as in charge of the election both of our Chancellor 
and of our first member of Parliament, — it has been altogether im- 
possible for me, even with the assistance kindly proffered by 
members of Council, to do anything like justice to such biographies 
as those of Sir David Brewster, Professor Walker-Arnott, Dr John 
Davy, Dr Bird Herapath, Dr Robert Lee, Dr Manson, Sir George 
Clerk, Mr Thomson of Banchory, and others of the Ordinary
