"Death of Dr. Duncan.
Residents will learn with deep regret that one of
the most noticeable of figures in Harrow life has
passed away in the Death of Dr. Henry Montague
Duncan of Camperdown Roxborough Park. Death came
peacefully on Tuesday night at 10 o'clock when he
went to his rest at the great age of 92.
He was born when George IV was king and was 32
years of age when the Crimean War was fought.
His memory of stirring events of 70 years ago was
good, and he was a striking and interesting
personality. He received his medical training at
University College hospital and was an M.D. of
London and was in general Practise in
Buckingham Palace Road for 30 years 1850 - 1880.
After a short residence at South Hampstead he
came to live at Harrow in 1901 since when he has
been a familiar personage in our streets, and we
regret the death of an estimated resident who was
we believe the oldest London Doctor.
The funeral will take place on Saturday
at 11.15 at the cemetery." |
