Abstract
BY the death on Sunday, November 24, of Mr. Reginald Philip Gregory, from pneumonia following influenza, the University of Cambridge has lost an able botanist, a man for whom young and old felt a warm affection. Mr. Gregory was born on June 7, 1879, at Trowbridge, Wilts; he received practically the whole of his early education in a preparatory school established in 1887 by his mother at Weston-super-Mare, where special attention was paid to natural history. At the suggestion of Prof. Reynolds, of University College, Bristol, from whom he received some additional training, he successfully competed for an entrance scholarship at St. John's College, Cambridge, in 1897. He came into residence in October, 1898, and in 1900 obtained a first class in the first part of the Natural Sciences Tripos; in 1902 he grained a first class in botany in the second part of the Tripos.
