Excepting four years of war service in France, all his working life was spent in London, where he soon gained a position of peculiar importance midway between physiology and medicine that enabled him to influence and steadily bend the growth of British medicine into a closer union with the biological sciences. His own research work had been in physiological laboratories, and it was of such high repute as to win for him all the privileges of the commonwealth of science. In the profession of medicine, to which he moved from physiology, he soon displayed such clinical powers as gave him firm authority as a physician and ultimately brought him to the highest post of all, the Presidency of the College of Physicians. But he had little desire for consulting practice, and his steadfast aim from mid-life onwards was the furtherance of medicine as a science in itself. He did not himself do any notable work in the field of clinical science nor did he attempt to define his aim by many published writings ; rather he chose to exercise his influence personally, uplifting the merits of scientific thought in all his clinical teaching and taking firm hold of every occasion that gave him power to control practical plans for the scientific advancement of medicine.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126964239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He received his early education at Exeter School, and in 1894 entered at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, where he was first Exhibitioner and afterwards Scholar. At Cambridge he laid the foundation of not a few life-long friendships. His natural bent towards Geology soon became apparent, and he was an active member of the Sedgwick Club, in which he continued to take an interest in later years. He took the Natural Sciences Tripos in 1897-8, being placed in the first class in both parts, and he was awarded the Harkness Scholarship \"for proficiency in Geology, including Palaeontology.” After graduating he acted for three years as assistant to Professor W. J. Sollas at Oxford, where he joined Balliol College, and took the Oxford degrees of B.A. and B.Sc. During this time, too, he carried out his first important original research, a study of the Trias of Devon and Somerset on somewhat new lines. The results were embodied in a paper presented to the Geological Society in 1902 on “The Mineralogical Constitution of the Fine Material of the Bunter Pebble-Bed in the West of England.” Divergent views had been held concerning the source of the pebbles in this formation, and Thomas accordingly turned his attention to the materials of their matrix. His method, since widely practised, was to trace the various mineral constituents of the sand to their probable parent-rocks, and so to throw light on the distribution of land-areas and the direction of currents in Triassic times. In a later paper (1909) he extended the investigation to the whole of the New Red Sandstone of the West. His interest in the mineralogy of detrital deposits was shown also in his essay which gained the Sedgwick Prize (1904), the prescribed subject being “The Petrology of some group of British Sedimentary Rocks.”","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"237 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126808163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Strength of intellect and character had won him, in face of adverse circumstances, high and international position in the world of science. He had become in his own country a very symbol to the people of cultural revival of the nation. He had passed his early childhood in the mountain village of Petilla, where he was native, on the southern Pyreneean slope. His father practised surgery there among the peasants, himself of peasant stock, a doctor’s boy who had later acquired a barber-surgeon licence. Compact of energy and ambition, his father had by dint of grim economies moved later to Zaragoza, the University town. Little Santiago at school showed precocity. When not yet seven he was scribe for the family during an absence of his father in Madrid. But as he grew older the boy proved headstrong, with likes and dislikes intense and passionate. Thus, his love of watching birds on an occasion kept the countryside scouring for him in vain all night, with morning to discover him half up a precipice beside a martin’s nest where he had waited daybreak unable to get farther up or down. His other passion was to sketch : a sheet of paper made his fingers tingle to draw something—anything ; the mule kicking, the hen sitting, the castle on the height, the toper at the inn. Some of this draughtsmanship is extant and published. His father disapproved it ; he feared it might divert his son from medicine. So it was that the boy was packed off to Jaca, to the College of the Aesculapian Fathers. There Latin was a corner-stone of the instruction. Young Santiago, like young Helmholtz, could not learn by simple memorization ; the Latin teaching given required that. The college discipline was severe. Punishment came and grew relentless—the rod, incarceration, and prison-fare. The lad’s reaction became uncompromising rebellion. So was it that he was discharged, thin and sullen, silent about Jaca save for a rhapsody on the beauty of its valley.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125926306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their father was Sigismund Cohen, one of the numerous Germans who migrated to this country to take up the career of merchant shipper. It was his expectation and his desire that his twin sons should enter what had become his prosperous business. After early education in a Manchester day school, they attended a general matriculation course at Owens College from 1875-76. With a view to their preparation for business, one of the twins, Adolf, spent a year in Lisbon and the other, Julius, a year in Paris. The following year the brothers entered their father’s business, but it appealed only to Adolf. Julius had in his school days practised experimental chemistry in schoolboy fashion at home and acquired a strong interest in science. After a year of his father’s businesshe then decided to prepare for a career in chemical industry and returned to Owens College for two years, 1878-80, principally to study chemistry.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126867592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dale","doi":"10.1098/RSBM.1935.0025","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1098/RSBM.1935.0025","url":null,"abstract":"By the untimely death of Harold Ward Dudley, before he had completed his 48th year, Science has lost a devoted servant and a distinguished investigator. The wide influence which he had acquired, especially among those concerned with biochemistry, was due to his fine character and his personal charm, as well as to his already brilliant record of research ; and his services to the remarkable development of that branch of Science in this country, apart from the direct effect of his own investigations, involved a quiet and unselfish devotion of time and work to the interests of his colleagues. Dudley was born at Derby on October 30, 1887, the eldest son of the late Rev. Joshua Dudley, who, as a Methodist minister, was stationed for successive periods in different parts of the country. Harold Dudley’s schooling changed with these movements of his home. He was at Truro College, and at the King Edward VI Grammar School, Morpeth, from which he entered Leeds University, taking Chemistry as his subject, and specializing in Organic Chemistry. This brought him under the influence of the late J. B. Cohen, F.R.S., who died earlier in this year (see Obituary Notice, p. 503 of this issue). Cohen was not only a great and inspiring teacher ; there must have been something in his teaching of Organic Chemistry which aroused interest in its biological significance to account for the number of his pupils who have won success and distinction in biochemistry. It is sufficient to name, in order of seniority, Dakin, Raper, Hartley, Dudley, Woodman, Raistrick, and Wormall, and to note that four of these have been elected to our Fellowship for their work in biochemistry, to realize that the teaching of Cohen, himself no biologist, has had, through his pupils, a powerful influence on the development of this relatively young department of Science.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130974808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His widow married again and shortly afterwards Horace went to live with his mother’s sister, Mrs. Holland. By her he was brought up kindly, but in a severely Puritan manner. However, she valued education, and the boy was sent to the Stockport Grammar School, where he found a wise and kindly head master, the Rev. Charles Hamilton. To his insight and influence Lamb felt that he owed his start in life. Mr. Hamilton was an excellent teacher, both of classics and elementary mathematics, and from him we are told his pupil acquired a passing enthusiasm for the Greek and Latin poets.","PeriodicalId":113125,"journal":{"name":"Obituary Notices of Fellows of The Royal Society (1932-1954)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1935-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122789624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the mathematical tripos of 1873 he reached the place of seventh wrangler, and is described in the Calendar then as a Scholar of St. John’s. The next year was an important one in the history of Physics in Cambridge. The Cavendish Laboratory was opened, with Clerk Maxwell as first Professor, and a small number of men who had taken the mathematical tripos gathered under him as students there. Sir J. J.Thomson tells us in the Commemoration Volume of Maxwell that Hicks was the first of these students, and that he was followed by Gordon, Chrystal, Saunders, MacAlister, Fleming, Glazebrook, Schuster, Niven, and Poynting—a truly distinguished band.
