Abstract
WE regret to announce that Dr. Peter Griess died very suddenly at Bournemouth on Thursday last week, apparently from an attack of apoplexy. A very skilful manipulator, enthusiastically devoted to his science, a patient and unwearying worker, his death will deprive chemical science of one of its brightest ornaments. He will be chiefly remembered for his discovery of the diazo-compounds, one of the most remarkable classes of substances known to chemistry.
