It is not the purpose of this brief sketch, however, to catalogue the long list of Dr. Hunt's scientific contributions. His importance as an investigator has been repeat- edly acknowledged by his contemporaries in that public recognition which takes the form ofelection to the National Academy of Sciences, presidencies of conventions, and membership in international bodies such as the Drug Standardization Committee of the League of Nations. Shy and unaggressive, yet utterly uncompromising when appeal is made to his critical judgment, he has exerted a lasting impression on the innumerable younger men who have come to him during these years for advice in problems covering a wide range of medical biology. Erudite to an encyclopaedic degree, he is never condescending or patronizing, even to the humblest beginner. His greatest charm, perhaps, is the simplicity with which he has always taken for granted in those who seek his counsel the same honesty of purpose, devotion to truth and integrity which pervades his own life and thoughts. Reid Hunt is a very successful man. ln ending his long career of service at the Harvard Medical School, he leaves in the minds of his students and colleagues admira- tion for his wisdom and warm affection for the qualities of his heart and character. Whether or not he goes on with active work in his own field, he may count upon a continuation of indirect usefulness in that, wherever he may be, his advice and his friendship will be sought by everyone who can gain access to him. The tradition which his presence has added to the Harvard Medical School will never cease to be one of its proud assets. ...g.Q23.... QQ!
