Dr. FREDERIC POMEROY LORD '98, Professor of Anatomy Emeritus at the Dartmouth Medical School, died October 30 at the Brookside Nursing Home, Wilder, Vt., in his 94th year.

Member of one of the most prominent families in Dartmouth history, Dr. Lord was the great-grandson of Nathan Lord, sixth President of the College. His grandfather was the Rev. John King Lord, Class of 1836, and his father was Prof. John King Lord, Class of 1868, who served on the Dartmouth faculty from 1869 to 1916, the last 24 years as Daniel Webster Professor of Latin, a Trustee of the College for nine years, and was Acting President in 1892-93.

After graduating from Dartmouth with Phi Beta Kappa rank in 1898, he taught in high school for a short period and then became a student in the Dartmouth Medical School, where he received his M.D. degree in 1903. He worked in Boston and New York hospitals and then headed west to teach in the medical school of the State University of lowa and practiced general medicine in lowa City until 1911, when he returned to Hanover as Professor of Anatomy. He retired in 1947, having taught anatomy to more than 600 Dartmouth Medical School students. In 1965 they presented to him a large bound volume of their letters in testimony of their remembrance of him as a superlative teacher and inspiring person.

Dr. Lord was a member and former president of both the Grafton County Medical Society and the New Hampshire Medical Society, and was a trustee of the latter from 1937 to 1942. He was a member of the American Society of Anatomists, the American Association for the Advancement of Scinece, the Audubon Society, and the Wilson Ornithological Club.

While serving as school physician in Hanover in 1928, he arranged for the establishment here of the first district school nurse. Since 1963 he had been president of the Class of 1898.

A host of friends in Hanover and among the alumni remember not only his genius as a teacher and the gracious and open home he and Mrs. Lord maintained at 39 College Street, but also his skill at the piano and the workbench, his famous wildflower garden, his intimacy with the wild birds, and his joy in skiing, camping, and canoeing. In later years he was a familiar sight in town, riding his bicycle everywhere—rides punctuated with greetings from the many friends who enjoyed his twinkling humor and genuine interest in their activities and families.
