Abstract
THROUGH the death on January 27 of Mr. R. J. Moss at the age of eighty-seven years, the Irish scientific world has lost one of its last links with the brilliant period of which FitzGerald was the leading spirit. Moss was appointed keeper of the minerals and analyst to the Royal Dublin Society in 1875, and registrar in 1878, a position which he held until his retirement in 1921. He was the oldest member of the Royal Irish Academy, having been elected in 1874.
