History
Educated at the Perse School, Cambridge and Durham University before serving in the First World War. He was stationed at Magdalene as Officer attached to a Short Course and dined frequently with the Master and Fellows. Due to the respect and affection he inspired he was formally admitted to the College at the end of the war at the age of 27 with the unusual status of Fellow-Commoner which gave him dining rights at High Table. He proceeded to his BA in 1923 by means of the examination allowances made to ex-servicemen. He retained his Fellow Commonorship until 1970 when he was made an Honorary Fellow.
He taught Music and Religious Knowledge at the Perse School and became a Governor on his retirement. He was a Scout Master and lived at Toft Manor.
