Abstract
BY the death of Dr. Walter d'Este Emery on June 19, pathology has lost a keen disciple, and his acquaintances a loyal friend. Emery was a distinguished student of Queen's University, Birmingham, and St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London. After junior appointments held at his schools, he became assistant bacteriologist to the Laboratories of the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons. Later, he was lecturer on pathology and bacteriology in the University of Birmingham and Hunterian professor at the Royal College of Surgeons. Coming to London, he held various appointments, finally being made lecturer on pathology and bacteriology, and director of the Laboratories, King's College Hospital, a post he had to relinquish some two years ago on account of ill-health.
