Occupation General surgeon Priest
Details Born 6 December 1842, son of James Moncrieff Arnott, professor of surgery at King's College, London, and President of the Royal College of Surgeons in 1850 and 1859, Henry Arnott was educated at University College School and at University College, London. He held the post of house surgeon and resident physician's assistant at University College Hospital and then acted as clinical assistant at the Consumption Hospital, Brompton. He was elected surgeon to the Great (now the Royal) Northern Hospital but does not seem to have taken up the duties of the office. From 1866 to 1869 he was surgical registrar and superintendent of post-mortems at the Middlesex Hospital and was elected assistant surgeon in 1870. He acted as dean of the medical school, teacher of bandaging and minor surgery, and joint lecturer on pathology. It is of this period that he writes: "I remember when I was dean of the Middlesex Hospital medical school two lady doctors from America asked to be admitted as students. I was very much non-plussed. I was very young indeed and did not know what the law was. I pointed out some of the difficulties that might arise because the students might possibly resent their presence. I said I was too young to decide and must appeal to the Governors of the Hospital. They said 'No', but left me to deal with the matter. The ladies insisted on joining. What was the result? I got into such a row. The first day they came to the operating theatre all the students cleared out and I did the two or three operations with the ladies looking on. The next day the ladies went into the dissecting room - again the students left; the two ladies sat down calmly and began to dissect, but after about a week they went away and their fees were returned". He was elected assistant surgeon to St Thomas's Hospital on 6 July 1871, and resigned the post in 1876 having determined to take orders in the Church of England. Arnott had long been interested in the work of the Church and in October 1864 had helped to found a Brotherhood of St Luke with Reginald Eager, John Wickham Legg, Charles Frederick Lethbridge, and George William Rigden, who were all, like himself, medical students. On 2 November 1864 Robert Brett was chosen provost and Henry Arnott master of the brotherhood, which subsequently became well known as the Guild of St Luke. Arnott lived at Beckenham whilst he was surgeon to St Thomas's Hospital, and was there appointed a lay reader under the Rev William Cator, the rector. In. 1877 he entered the Chichester Theological College, was ordained deacon in 1878 by Archbishop Archibald Tait and was licensed to the curacy at Beckenham where, being ordained priest in 1879, he remained until 1884. Dr Ellicott, Bishop of Gloucester appointed him vicar of Bussage, Gloucestershire, and he held the cure only until 1885 when he was presented to the living of Beckenham by a private patron. Here he remained for thirty-four years until his retirement in 1919, doing much good in the parish and rebuilding the parish church of St George between 1889 and 1903. He was rural dean (1909-21), first of West Dartford and afterwards of Beckenham. From 1906 to 1914 he was proctor in convocation, and in 1905 was chosen honorary Canon of Rochester. He married a daughter of Captain Powell of the Royal Welch Fusiliers and sister of Sir Richard Douglas Powell, Bt (1842-1925), sometime President of the Royal College of Physicians. She died in 1930 and was survived by four sons and four daughters. He died at his house in the precincts, Rochester, on 27 March 1931, aged 88, and was buried at Beckenham. Arnott was eminently fitted for the pastoral office and throughout his long ministry at Beckenham exercised a widespread influence for good. He was a man of handsome and distinguished presence and his sermons were remarkable for their clear and orderly expression.

Details William Harold Alfred Dodd, the eldest of three sons and second of five children of Alfred Leward Dodd and Annie Elizabeth (née Marshall), was born at Crewe, Cheshire, on 13 March 1899. He was educated at St Michael's Church School, Coppenhall, Crewe, and at Crewe Grammar School. From September 1917 until March 1919 he was initially a cadet, rising to the rank of Lieutenant in the Royal Flying Corps, later RAF. He then went to Liverpool University as T Williams Prizeman and graduated in 1922 with a distinction in surgery. He was appointed house surgeon to Professor Thelwall Thomas, and house physician to Professor Hill Abram, at the Liverpool Royal Infirmary. While surgical registrar at that Infirmary from 1924 to 1926, he demonstrated anatomy in 1924, and operative surgery in 1925, also serving as Captain RAMC (TA) from 1923 to 1931. In later life he recorded his appreciation of the help and inspiration he had received from Thelwall Thomas, Cecil Joll, Sir Lancelot Barrington-Ward, E T C Milligan and Professors Adam and von Lichetenberg of Budapest. On his election to the honorary surgical staff of King George V Hospital, Ilford, the rest of his working life was spent in the London area, with subsequent appointments at Princess Louise Hospital for Children, the Royal London Homoeopathic and the Royal Hospital, Richmond. He rapidly established a high reputation as a general surgeon and was a skilful operator with a flourishing private practice. Dating from his days in Liverpool he had a lifelong interest in the then unfashionable specialty of varicose veins. Having previously written on this subject he then, in 1956, in collaboration with a much younger colleague, Frank Cockett, of St Thomas's Hospital, published *The pathology and surgery of the veins of the lower limb*, a textbook which had an immense and worldwide influence on the teaching and practice of this poorly comprehended subject. His enthusiasm, once fired, never faltered and there followed a steady flow of papers. He lectured widely in the United Kingdom, the USA, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand and published further papers on proctology and the treatment of hernia. Harold Dodd was active in many other fields. He was honorary secretary and later President of the Section of Proctology of the Royal Society of Medicine; President, and later treasurer, of the Regional Hospital Consultants' Association; Governor of Epsom College from 1950 to 1972; a councillor for the Royal Medical Benevolent Fund for two spells and chairman of its management committee. A devout man, who was observed to say many a prayer for his patients in the theatre, he was an ever courteous and conscientious person, and a warm and steadfast friend to a generation of the Boys' and Girls' Grammar School in Crewe, Cheshire, and at Bury, Lancashire. He had married Mary (née Bond) in 1945 and they had one son, Dudley, a solicitor. Following his retirement he became a deacon at All Souls' Church, Langham Place, in 1970, and was ordained as an Anglican priest in June 1971. When he died, aged 88, on 29 March 1987, he was survived by his wife and son.

Details Born at Sydenham, Kent, the only son of William Adair McDougall, Captain in the 88th Regiment. His mother, whose maiden name was Gell, had strong evangelical principles. McDougall was educated at Malta, where his father's regiment was quartered, and attended the hospitals at Valetta. He entered as a medical student at King's College, London, in 1835, and matriculated in the University of Oxford from Magdalen Hall on February 28th, 1839, graduating BA in 1844, MA in 1845, and being created DCL on June 28th, 1854. Whilst he was at Oxford McDougall, weighing 9 stone 8 lb, rowed bow in the Oxford and Cambridge boat-race on July 11th, 1842, F N Menzies being stroke and the course from Westminster to Putney. The Oxford crew won, and the race is memorable as being the first in which the short digging 'Waterman's stroke' was abandoned for what afterwards became known as the 'Oxford stroke'. On leaving Oxford he became Medical Officer to some ironworks in South Wales, and married Marriette, daughter of Robert John Bunyon, whose elder sister was married to Bishop Colenso. The ironworks failed and McDougall was ordained in 1845 by Dr Stanley, Bishop of Norwich. He became Curate of Farnlingham Pigot, and in 1846 of St Mark's, Lakenham, a populous suburb of Norwich, and afterwards of Christ Church, Woburn Square, London. He was offered a permanent position at the British Museum in 1847, and almost at the same time came the offer of a curacy and of mission work in Borneo. He chose the first, repented, and set out for Borneo in December, 1847. There with the help of Mrs McDougall he did much good work amongst the Chinese and Dyaks, establishing a 'Home School' in which the children were taught from infancy the principles of Christianity. He returned to England in 1853 and arranged for the transfer of the mission to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, as the funds of the Borneo Mission were exhausted. He was in Sarawak again in 1854, and was consecrated at Calcutta on St Luke's Day, 1855, Bishop of Labuan, as this small island was alone under the direct control of the Colonial Office and no precedent existed for a bishopric beyond the dominions of the Crown. He sent a three-column letter to *The Times*, dated from Sarawak, May 27th, 1862. It is a fine pirate story, telling of an encounter with Malay pirates at sea in which quite unostentatiously he shows himself a first-class fighter, a surgeon, and a priest. Some exception was taken to the letter, in which the Bishop says: "My double-barrelled Terry's breech loader, made by Reilly, New Oxford Street, proved itself a most deadly weapon from its true shooting, and certainty and rapidity of fire. It never missed fire once in 80 rounds, and was then so little fouled that I believe it would have fired 80 more with like effect without wanting to be cleaned." Dr Tait, then Bishop of London, told him dryly that when next there was occasion for such a letter he had best let his wife write it for him. In 1857 he wrote a *Malay Prayer Book*, and in 1868 published a *Catechism for the Use of the Missions of the Church in Borneo*. Bishop McDougall's health failed in 1867; he returned to England, resigned his Bishopric in the spring of 1868, and was presented by Dean Stanley to the vicarage of Godmanchester, Huntingdonshire, which he held until 1874. Here he formed a close friendship with Harold Browne, Bishop of Ely, who appointed him Archdeacon of the Diocese in 1870 and Canon of Ely in the following year. When Dr Browne was translated from Ely to Winchester he made McDougall a Canon of Winchester in 1873 and Archdeacon of the Isle of Wight in 1874, adding the small Vicarage of Milford-on-Sea, Hants, in 1881. This cure he held until 1885, when he became Rector of Mottistone with Shorwell, Isle of Wight. He died on November 16th, 1886, his wife having died on May 7th preceding. One of his daughters married F Charlewood Turner, MD, Physician to St Thomas's Hospital, the second married Charles Henry Turner, DD, Bishop of Islington, whose fourth son, George Charlewood Turner, MC, was Master of Marlborough College.
