Abstract
DR. LIEBEN, whose death occurred on June 6 at the age of seventy-eight, was born on December 3, 1836, at Vienna, and was the son of a merchant in that city. Until the age of twelve his education was entrusted to the care of Moritz Hartmann, who was later to make a name as a poet. Later young Lieben began to interest himself in chemistry, and attended lectures at the university under Redtenbacher and Schrötter. In 1855 he entered the University of Heidelberg, and worked in Bunsen's laboratory, where he met many students—Beilstein, Baeyer, Landolt, L. Meyer, and Roscoe—who were destined later to become distinguished in the science of chemistry.
