Abstract
WE regret to record the death, which occurred on December 4, of M. Emile Meyerson. Many British philosophers knew the hospitable apartment of the Rue Clement Marot, in Paris, where he used to receive his intimate friends. There was an air of sadness about him, for he suffered much ill-health and physical pain. Emile Meyerson seemed to know everything and everybody. It could scarcely be otherwise, when one remembers that he was born at Lublin in Poland in 1859, studied chemistry in Germany before going to France, where he worked at first as a journalist with the Agence Havas and as a director of Jewish charities. From his vast experience of men and things, he drew the material with which he built up his philosophy, for he owned no master and created a method suited to his purpose.
