Abstract
The Riemann-Stieltjes integral is defined in some text books on analysis. Kenneth A. Ross proved in his
Elementary Analysis: The Theory of Calculus, that if the integrand is a continuous function and integrator is an
increasing function then the Riemann-Stieltjes integral exists.
In this study, we shall weaken the condition on the Riemann-Stieltjes integral. More precisely, we prove
that if

f RF a b
and

exists.
