Miss GULIELMA LISTED, who died at Sycamore House, Leytonstone, on May 18, was born there on October 28, 1860. She was the daughter of Arthur Lister, F.R.S., a wiffe merchant and an authority on Mycetozoa, the granddaughter of J. J. Lister, F.R.S., physicist and microscopist, and a niece of Lord Lister. She had three sisters and three brothers— J. J. Lister, an eminent zoologist ; Arthur Lister, a brilliam. consulting physician, who died of tuberculosis on active service during the First World War ; and Sir William Lister, the noted eye specialist. It was a happy and devoted Quaker family as full of good works as it was in achievement. She received her education at home, except that for a year, when she was sixteen, she attended Bedford College for Women.
