Abstract
NOT only the French but also chemists generally suffer a specially severe loss by the death of Charles Moureu, professor of organic chemistry in the Collége de France, the second to succeed Berthelot. In France, the leader in his subject, he was not merely a chemist of great achievement and high repute but also a man of outstanding personal character and social distinction. During the War he rendered inestimable service to his country by organising and directing the work—defensive and offensive—of the French chemists; in this connexion he was brought into close contact with our English workers. Since then he has been a familiar figure in England.
