When I agreed to give the 1976 Jeffery-Williams Lecture to the Canadian Mathematical Congress, I did not envisage that it would be my lot to give what might now be called the first memorial lecture in this series of lectures. During the past year, Ralph Jeffery and Lloyd Williams both died, and their deaths brought forward many deserved tributes to these two wonderful men. My lecture today will forge a link with my mathematical past, a past in which both of these men played important roles.
