The Childlike Simplicity of Dr Duncan's Character
A reminiscence by Dr Brown and Mr Davidson portrays Dr Duncan as a man of enduring childlike simplicity. He delighted in simple joys, wandered absentmindedly with books, and laughed at a kicked football on a Meadows evening. His quirks included misrouting steamer trips and snuff mishaps, yet his unselfish life offered a refreshing study in psychology.
