Descrição: THE death of Dr. Henry Borns on Dec. 12 last,-at the age of seventy-five years, removes a very familiar figure from the meeting-places of scientific societies in London. Until the last year or two, when ill-health made his attendances not so regular, he was present at nearly every meeting concerned with physics or subjects related thereto. Always one would find him busily reporting the proceedings (for many years he acted as reporter for Engineering) and anxious to supplement his notes by a talk with the lecturer and a perusal of the manuscript. Although he was thus well known to the secretaries of the societies, few people seem to have known him intimately. He seldom volunteered information about himself, and he probably led a rather lonely life apart from his meetings. He was born in Austria, but must have come early in life to England, for he became a member of the British Association forty-eight years ago, attended the Montreal meeting in 1884, and missed very few meetings since that date. He joined the Physical Society in 1895, and was an original member of the Faraday Society.
