Abstract
THE announcement of the death of the English psychologist, Prof. Titchener, in his sixty-first year, which occurred after a short illness at Ithaca, N.Y., on Aug. 3, will be received in Great Britain with mingled feelings of regret and surprise. Regret will be felt for the loss of one who spent his abundant energies so generously in nursing to adolescence a new-born science. Surprise will be felt at the tidings that Titchener remained an Englishman, despite his thirty-five years' residence at Cornell University, and that with his full record of work he had only attained the age of sixty years at the time of his death.
