L. Bloxam's private laboratory. His association with King's College continued without interruption until 1918. He held successively the positions of lecturer, assistant professor (1902), and professor of organic chemistry (1905); he was elected a fellow of King's College in 1907, and was finally appointed Daniell professor of chemistry on the retirement of Prof. John Millar Thomson in 1914. He was regarded with affection by all the students of the College for the zest with which he participated in their social and athletic activities, which affection was enhanced among those who studied under him by their recognition of his admirable teaching capabilities.
