Abstract
WE regret to record the decease of Prof. Wellesley Curram Clinton, who succeeded Sir Ambrose Fleming as Pender professor of electrical engineering in University College, London, in 1926. He had been prevented for the last three months from attending to his University work by illness, which was not considered to be serious at first, but in August it took an unfavourable turn and to the grief of his relatives, friends and colleagues, he died on August 18. He was sixty-three years of age, having been born in London on October 28, 1871, and he received his early scientific education at Finsbury Technical College under Profs. Ayrton and Perry.
