Abstract
KEW OBSERVATORY has had a long line of superintendents, including Balfour Stewart and Charles Chree, and F. J. W. Whipple was a worthy member of it. He retired in March 1939 with the prospect of much useful scientific work ahead ; but to the regret of his friends and old colleagues he died from heart failure on September 25 this year.
