General Notes: Reported by William Munro
"Tom was the black sheep of the family. He was often in trouble. Novar Station was burnt, and an article appeared in one of the papers accusing him of doing the fire raising. The paper eventually apologised. However, Assynt farmsteading was burnt, and he was sent to prison because of it while still very young. A brother of our grandmother from USA was staying at Assynt at tat time and kicked up a terrible fuss until he got him released.
The children at Assynt were made to keep a weelky journal, a much detested task, and after one of them wrote an account of the fire and trial the journal was discontinued.
Tom went to Canada and took up land. I think that from time to time pleas for financial help came to his mother and to Aunt K.

"Lodge Hill, Mangaweka, NZ.
My Dear Little Wife,
I was so pleased you get your two letters yesterday & to know that you and Marie are both well. My Dear, I thought you were very brave at the parting. I nearly gave way. Marie's wee face was too much for me, and you were trying so bravely to keep back the tears. You will be pleased to know that I have been very well since coming here. I put on 1lb in weight the first week (?). Everyone is very kind to me. I am getting a good bit stronger & I hope soon to be able to ride round the farm. The farm is 1000 acres and carries 3000 sheep & 200 cattle. Mac does all the work with the help of one man, except when they dock the lambs tails and shear the sheep. The scenery round here is very fine. I like living in the tent first rate. I get tea at 6am, porridge & cream at 8, egg and milk at ten and get up at 11. Dinner at 12 & I don't know how much eggs and milk before tea.I go to bed at nine & have a cup of hot milk before I go.A good many visitors come here especially on Sunday. Mac plays the bagpipes & also the violin & played "The Cock of the North" & a lot of other tunes the night I arrived. I want only you and baby to make me happy. I must be content. I am doing my best to get well & taking every care of myself. It is warm enough to be ---- most of the time. I hope I will keep on putting on weight. I will be glad when I will be able to do some work again. Mac has a big garden & grows a lot of his vegetables. I am afraid I must finish now & Mrs Rhodes (the housekeeper) is going to Manganewa. The post closes tomorrow. Give my kind regards to all & fond love & many kisses to Marie & fond kisses to my own dear wife.
From your loving husband
Wallace
I am glad that you are bearing up so bravely. Cheer up My Darling & God bless you
Wallace

Letter from his mother, Flora Wallace, dated Jan 9, 1910
Kinrara, Southside Road, Inverness
My dear Wallace,
I am sorry to hear from Mackay that you were not so well when he wrote at the end of November. I hope you are not suffering much and that you are able to cast on God all your care for yourself and your wife and child, for time and for eternity. Of course you may recover but from the beginning I have felt hopelessand was sad to think you should be cut off in your prime. But our life is not ended here. Today I have read the following, and when Cathie and our maid to an afternoon service, I thought i would write you a line.
"The continuity of life lifts the shadow also from another mystery - tho lives that have been cut off in their prime. When one is richly endowed and carefully trained, and has come to the zenith of his power, his sudden removal seems a reflection on the economy of god's kingdom. Why call this man to the choir celestial when he is so much needed in active service? According to Jesus he had not sunk into inaction, so much subtracted from the forces of righteousness. He has gone where the fetters of this body of humiliation and embarassment of adverse circumstances shall no longer be felt. We must not think of him as withdrawn from the field; we must imagine him as in the van of battle. We must follow him, our friend with hope and a high heart".
I am glad that you are so comfortably situated and as long as I live I must feel grateful to Mackay and Mrs Rhodes for their constant kindness to you. You have everything to insure your recovery if care and attention could avail. You must sometimes think that you are not to recover, and in prospect of such an ?eacul? you must be pleased that your life is insured and I may add for your comfort that so far as I can see at present your share of my money will go to your child. I hope mother and child are keeping well. I have a letter from Jack in which he says that he hoped to see you on his way to the North Island and I hope he has done so.
With much love and sympathy.
I am, your affectionate mother

General Notes: A very cultured and literary person. Educated at East Barnet Grammar school, Aldenham school and Clare College, Cambridge. Mellon scholarship to Yale, USA, to study architecture.

RODERICK CHARLES LACK died in his sleep early on New Year's day, 1969. Rod Lack made more impact on the College than most people do, even though he seemed almost cat-like in his self-sufficiency. This was because his strongest interests were essentially private ones which, nonetheless, were capable of taking public forms. Outside literature (which he studied professionally, as it were, in the English Faculty) he was an artist; a private artist in his oil paintings (done in a bold, dashing style) but a public one in his designs for stage sets and for the decor of the May Ball. People will remember his enthusiasm and his capacity for working himself to the bone on his current project. Something of the same idiosyncratic vigour showed in other ways. As a student of literature he was never tidy, because he would not, fortunately, subdue his interests to the prudential requirements of the Tripos. Where he was interested, he read, and the weekly essay took second place. In Part 11 he found a course that could accommodate him. Characteristically he increased his load by taking the difficult option of a Part 11 Modern Languages paper in French, but equally characteristically did well both in that subject and in the examination as a whole. His competence, versatility and personality won him a Mellon Fellowship to Yale.
Outside, as well as inside his work, Rod was a rover. He could always be counted on to have planned an unusual vacation. He was prepared to travel widely, hard and alone in pursuit of his interests; for example he slept rough in Turkey as a means of continuing a long-term investigation, begun while still at school, of the mosaics of the region. The Mellon Fellowship provided an opportunity for a radical change of direction and Rod took it. At Yale he acknowledged his true bent by entering the School of Architecture. Those of us who met him at Yale will remember not only the confidence and drive that thrust him on to meet the challenge of his new discipline, but the enthusiasm with which he put his knowledge to practical use as a member of a group that erected a community centre in a depressed area in the Kentucky hills.
Rod came back to Cambridge to continue his architectural studies with every sign of having found his niche. He was lively, enthusiastic and looked physically very well. News of his sudden death so soon afterwards came, to those who knew him, as a shock from which they are not likely yet to have recovered.J.R.N.

67. Alastair Patrick Steele was born on 25 Jan 1906 and died on 5 Mar 1943 in Solomon Islands at age 37.

General Notes: Major Alastair Patrick Steele, R.A.

Friends of Dr. Steele will regret to learn that his second son, Major Alastair Patrick Steele, R.A., has been posted by the War Office as “Missing, presumed drowned.”

Alastair was born in Swatow, China, and was educated at the Royal Academy, Inverness and Tollington School, Tetherdown, London. From the University College Reading he took the B.Sc. at London University. Thereafter, he graduated at the Dick Veterinary College, Edinburgh, securing the Diploma of State Veterinary Medicine with many distinctions. His final appointment at home was that of Veterinary Inspector to the Orkney and Shetland Islands, with his headquarters at Kirkwall. During that period he shared the command of one of the vital defences of Scapa Flow with Eric Linklater, the novelist.

Having achieved his majority, he was then appointed Instructor of Gunnery to the Eas­tern Command. He was ordered to Hong Kong in 1942, but, when that fortress fell, the transport was directed to Singapore, where he arrived, only to be captured by the Japanese when the Malay Peninsula was finally occupied by the enemy. At Changi prison camp he was put in charge of the anti-Mosquito Cam­paign.

From Singapore, he and 600 other prisoners were shipped to New Britain in the Pacific, he being second in command of the group. In New Britain he was put in charge of the working parties, and “handled the Japanese” with much skill, to the advantage of the men under him.

From there, he and the men who could travel were sent to the Solomon Islands, and then back to New Britain. The final move was in a ship bound for New Guinea, and of that voyage nothing is known, nor has any news been re­ceived since.
