Abstract
Dr. Downing had been Superintendent of the Nautical Almanac from 1892 to 1910, and had done good service in Observational Astronomy. By the death at the great age of 98 of the Rev. William Greenwell, we lose a Fellow of forty years’ standing, a great collector and a prominent archæologist. Like Canon Norman, whose name also appears in this list, he was a Member of the Chapter of Durham Cathedral, which has thus lost in one year two Fellows of this Society.
