The publication of “ In Memoriam ” is designed to preserve, in a more permanent form that can otherwise be accomplished, some account of those citizens and others whose deaths have occurred in or near the city during the year; also, of Aberdonians who have died at other places. Such a record, we believe, may be of interest not only to residents and Aberdonians in all parts of the globe, but also to those who have at one time been connected with the city. It is necessary to state that “ In Memoriam ” (which we intend to publish annually) is not a complete register, but a compilation from the obituaries of the newspapers published from the offices of the Aberdeen Journtd and Daily Free Press. In abbreviating the biographical notices we have endeavoured to retain what will be of most general interest. WILLIAM CAY & SONS. Aberdeen, Januaryt 1891. 1890] OBITUARY.
