He studied at the Royal School of Mines, and during theyears he was a student came under the influence of the masterminds of Tyndall the physicist, Huxley the biologist, Ramsaythe geologist, and other leading scientists of the day, of whosepeculiarities he delighted to tell. In 1867 he received an appointment on the GeologicalSurvey of England and Wales, and worked with Topley forsome years in Northumberland. During these years he gainedthe foundations of a unique knowledge of north-east England, which, gradually developing, enabled him to write his book onthe Geology of Northumberland and Durham. This work isfull of accurate and original observations, and is a mine of. The Late Prof, G. A. L. Lebour. (From a block kindly lent by the Editor of the Vasculuni.) THK I.Alli; PK01-. (;. A. L.

It placed the geology of this area on ascientific basis, and paved the way for future knowledge. In 1870 he married Emily Nora, the daughter of Dr.Hodding, a London surgeon. He had known her from boy-hood, and she became a real helpmeet to him in his lifework. He resigned his post on the Geological Survey in 1873, entering into practice as a consulting geologist, and twoyears later was appointed Lecturer in Geological Surveying inthe Durham College of Physical Science. On the death ofProfessor Page in 1879 he was elected to the Chair of Geologywhen 32 years old. He held this appointment until his death, and no man took a keener inter
