Abstract
DEATH has been taking a heavy toll of eminent Oxford men within the last few months. First, Prof. Joachim died about a year ago; then his intimate friend Prof. J. A. Smith; then Prof. Samuel Alexander, who had made his name at Lincoln College before he went to Manchester. Then, on April 18, came the death of Mr. H. A. L. Fisher, who was, public man of tinc group. In one way he must surely have been unique, in giving many years of service as a Minister of the Crown and then having a long tenure of the warden-ship of New College, Oxford.
