Abstract
THE death, which occurred on February 15, 1943, of Prof. Henry George Denham, professor of chemistry in, and rector of, Canterbury University College, Christ church, New Zealand, and chairman of the New Zealand Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, has deprived the University of New Zealand of a distinguished teacher, administrator and investigator, and both the Dominion and the British Empire of a man who had done eminent public service in vigorously fostering the advancement of pure and applied science in his native country.
