Abstract
WE regret to have to record the death of Mr. Warren De la Rue, F.R.S. He was born in 1815, and died on Good Friday, after a short illness, from pneumonia. Mr. De la Rue was a most devoted observer and munificent patron of astronomy, and in him and Balfour Stewart solar physics has lost its chief founders.
