Abstract
BIRMINGHAM.—At its last meeting the University council passed the following resolution:—“That the council desires to record its deep sorrow at the death of Prof. Poynting, who so faithfully served the Mason College and the University for thirty-four years. During his distinguished career as professor of physics-he was not only an inspiring teacher and investigator, but bore a considerable part in the development of the college and of the University. His keen interest in all that concerned the University, its staff, and its students, his genial and attractive personality, will be long and affectionately remembered; his death leaves a gap which it will be most difficult to fill.”
