Overview

Excerpt from Abstract of the Proceedings of the Liverpool Geological Society, Vol. 2: Sessions 11 to 15, 1869-74 I have also to record the death of one of our Honorary Members, the late Professor J. Beete J ukes, m.a., Director of Her Majesty's Geological Survey in Ireland, and Professor of Geology to the Royal College of Science. He was born near Birmingham in 1811, and was in his 58th year when he died. I need not make any comment on this great loss to geological science. In addition to the introduction of many new laws for the regulation of our Society, it has become a part of your President's duty to Open each Session with an Address, though the subject, or rather the general bearing of it, seems to have been left to his discretion. The progress of geological science during the previous year is always a convenient subject for such an Address, though it is apt to be a mere repetition of what is already familiar to every reader of our current scientific literature, in which every new fact and theory is regularly presented to us either in a monthly or quarterly form.
