Abstract
ARTHUR ROBERT LING, whose death took £˜\ place on May 14, owed his career as a research chemist to the inspiration of Prof. H. E. Armstrong, under whom he studied at the Finsbury Technical College in 1883 and thereabouts. He was encouraged to work on halogen derivatives of the nitrophenols, and he afterwards extended his investigations to similar derivatives of quinones, and in this began his long association with Julian Baker. The latter was continued when, as chemist to the London Beet root Sugar Association, he carried out his routine work in the daytime, and in the evenings and at week-ends prosecuted with Baker his extensive investigations on the constitution of starch.
