No. 4194 March 18, 1950 OBITUARIES Dr. R. H. Rastall ROBERT HERON RASTALL, who died on February 3 at the age of seventy-eight, was the son of H. A. H. Rastall of Turnerdale Hall, near Whitby. In early life he'was destined for a career in agricultural science, and after taking the diploma of the Royal Agricultural Society held a post on the staff of the Tamworth Agricultural College. In 1899 he went up to Christ's College, Cambridge, where he gained a first class in both parts of the Natural Sciences Tripos specializing in geology in Part 2, and in 1903 was a~ardecl the Harkness Scholarship for geology. During 1906-13 he was a fellow of Christ's College and in 1926 was re-elected a supernmnerary fellow. In 1910 he became University demonstrator in geology and in 1919 was app_ointed lecturer in economic geology. He was an active member of both the Geological and Mineralogical Societies and served on the councils of both these bodies. Dr. Rastall's scientific interests were mainly in petrology and structural geology, and between 1903 and 1914 he worked in the Lake District and in South Africa, publishing important papers on the Ennerdale granophyre, the metamorphism of the rocks around the Skiddaw granite and the Worcester District in the Cape Province ; meanwhile he was engaged in the study of sedimentary petrology and the geological structure of south-eastern Englan~. In 1911, in collaboration with Philip Lake, he published his "Text-Book of Geology" and later several other books : "Agricultural Geology", "The Geology of the Metalliferous Deposits", and "Physico-Chemical Geology". During the First Wo~ld ~ar he hel~ a fessor of anatomy in McGill University and later post in the War Office and, _becommg impressed the importance of economic geology, he began to apply petrological ideas to the theory of ore deposits, writing several papers and the book referred to above. In 1916 he began to assist Henry Woodward in editing the Geological Magazine and, in 1919, became editor, contributing many papers to its pages. In 1934 Dr. Bulman became joint editor, and this partnership lasted until his death. Meanwhile, he had been geological editor of the 1929 edition of the "Encyclopredia Britannica", to which he contributed a number of articles. About the beginning of the Second World War he retired from Cambridge to his old home at Ruswarp near Whitby and, in col- laboration with Dr. J. E. Hemingway, continued to work on the Jurassic rocks. A nmnber of papers were published, and he remained actively interested in this work until his death. Though of a somewhat retiring disposition, Rastall was an inspiring teacher. He was known to gener- ations of undergraduates for his help in the Sedgwick Musemn ; but it was in the more intimate relation of a. supervisor that he will best be remembered by many. He had the gift of drawing out and developing his pupils' ideas ; a quiet talk with him co?ld alw~ys be relied upon to produce some new and mterestmg point of view, and he has left a lasting mark on the Cambridge school of geology.
