Abstract
NOT only the British Empire, but the whole world is mourning the death of one of the most beneficent Sovereigns who has ever adorned a throne. History will for many centuries record the fact that her long reign has been contemporaneous with the most tremendous advances of science which the world has so far seen. In consequence of one of these advances, the civilised communities spread over the whole surface of the planet have mourned simultaneously, and as with one voice, the loss of one universally beloved.
