Abstract
FRANCIS SOWERBY MACAULAY, who died at Cambridge on February 9, aged seventy-four years, was for many years mathematical master at St. Paul's School and will be remembered by generations of pupils, not a few of whom became distinguished mathematicians; he also produced original mathematical work of high quality, in a field little cultivated in England, the general theory of algebraic polynomials.
