Abstract
ON November 10 the death occurred of Prof. E. L. Nichols, emeritus professor of physics in Cornell University, in his eighty-fourth year. Prof. Nichols's connexion with Cornell was of very long standing, as he studied there from 1871 until 1875 and was appointed professor of physics in the University in 1887. Thus for the past fifty years he has been continuously associated with Cornell, his appointment as emeritus professor dating from 1919. Previous to 1887, he had held the post of professor of physics, first at the University of Kentucky and then at Kansas University.
