Abstract

THERE has been in existence for a number of years a most admirable trust, known as the Murdoch Trust, for the benefit of indigent bachelors and widowers who have done good work for science and have fallen on less prosperous days. Few people seem to be aware of the existence of this Trust or of its beneficent purpose, though a modest advertisement occasionally appears, as, for example, in NATURE of March 2, p. Ixvi, inviting applications for donations or pensions from it. We gladly direct attention to the aid thus available to persons who have promoted or helped the advancement of any branch of science and are in need. The Trustees welcome applications from scientific workers eligible for assistance from the funds they have available. Particulars can be obtained from Messrs. Shepherd and Wedderburn, 16 Charlotte Street, Edinburgh.
