Abstract
THE death took place at Frinton-on-Sea, Essex, on Thursday, March 19, of Prof. Percy Fry Kendall, formerly professor of geology in the University of Leeds. He was born at Clerkenwell in 1856. Like many others whose names are famous in the annals of geological science, Kendall was a product of theold Science and Art Department at South Kensington, and in the year 1874 he was awarded the Silver Medal of the Department, this being, the writer believes, the only occasion when such a distinction was gained by a student in geology.
