The Scottish Society of Economists was founded on the 29th June 1897. It derived largely from the efforts of Professor Shield Nicholson, its first President, to promote an informed public opinion on matters of economic importance as they arose. The initiative in the formation of the Society came from John H. Romanes, LL.B., W.S., its first Secretary, and throughout its life one of its most active and keen supporters. The inaugural address of the President, delivered in November 1897, appeared in the Economic Journal issued the following month.
