Abstract
GEOLOGISTS will learn with universal regret of the death, after a painful illness, of the distinguished Professor of Geology at Göttingen, Karl von Seebach. Although Prof, von Seebach was still a young man at the time of his death, he had already made his mark in science, and his career promised a distinguished future. Von Seebach's earliest studies were devoted to strati-graphical geology and paleontology, and he devoted much time to the preparation of a geological map of the kingdom of Hanover, and to his earnest labours much of the excellence of this map is due. The result of Prof, von Seebach's studies of the stratified rocks of Hanover are embodied in a number of separate memoirs and in his well known treatise “Die Hannoverischer Jura.”
