Dr William Craig

last, joined the Edinburgh Obstetrical Society in 1870, and throughout his long life never ceased to take an active interest in its doings. For thirty-five years he was the honorary and honoured Treasurer of the Society, and many of us know that it was entirely due to his enthusiasm and business ability that the Society was raised from the verge of bankruptcy to the flourishing condition in which he left it when he presented his last financial statement in 1910. All who knew him held Dr Craig in the very highest esteem, and this Society will ever hold his name in affectionate and most grateful memory. He has passed to his rest full of years and of honour, and our sympathy goes out to his sorrowing relations. The funeral took place on Monday and this Society was officially represented by the presence of Dr Fordyce, a Vice-President, and of Dr Davidson, the Senior Secretary. I am sure it will be your wish that we record in our minutes our deep sense of loss by the death of Dr Craig, and that an excerpt be sent to his son, Dr John Craig, who is a member of our Council.
