Abstract
WALTER BIGGAR BLAIKIE, LL.D., who died on May 3, was an extremely well-known figure in Edinburgh circles. Born in 1847, the son of a remarkable mother, his death severs a link with a past period. Educated at Edinburgh Academy, and the Universities of Edinburgh and Brussels, he began life as a railway engineer in the Public Works Department in India. He returned to Edinburgh after his marriage and joined the firm of T. and A. Constable, printers, with whom he remained associated until his retirement a few years ago.
