By the death of Professor Eustis, the university has sustained a serious loss and one which it will find it hard work to repair. Having received an education at the two leading sets of learning in their respective departments and a practical knowledge of his calling both as an officer and professor in the army, be was well qualified to accept the position of professor to which the university saw fit to call him at the inception of a Scientific department. For more than thirty years he has filled the position with credit to himself and the university. Few, indeed, can show a record of longer service faithfully performed. Another leader has fallen, another gap been made in the ranks of those whom the university and its students have been accustomed to depend on and look up to respectively as the educational forces of Cambridge.
