MB. HENRY WATSON, J.P., of Anstru- ther, Fifeshire, died on 12th August, less than a month after he had resigned, on account of ill-health, his position of Joint Honorary Secretary of the Station which he had held with his partner of the firm of solicitors Messrs. Mackintosh and Watson. He was appointed Honorary Treasurer in 1891, and six years later joined Mr. A. C. Mackintosh as Joint Honorary Secretary. His interest in the sea and in the fishermen of the East Coast was shown also by the work which he did as a member of the Fishery Board from 1903 to 1911 and as Joint Honorary Agent of the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society. He took the closest personal interest in the Branch, both in the work of the Station and in organizing appeals, and in 1913 he and his partner were presented with a Life- boat Picture in recognition of their services to the Institution..
