Abstract
PROF. ARNOLD, whose death occurred on Mar. 27, must be regarded as one of the founders of the modern metallurgy of steel. It was largely through his efforts that the scientific control of manufacture by chemical analysis and microscopical examination has been generally adopted in the steel industry, whilst his researches have played a most important part in building up our knowledge of the constitution of the alloys of iron. In both these directions he rendered great services to science in general, and to the industry of his adopted city of Sheffield in particular.
