- W2056094877 abstract "Ernest Harold Farmer was born at Longford, Derbyshire, on 3 March 1890, and was educated at the Municipal School, Derby, and University College, Nottingham. He studied chemistry under Professor F. S. Kipping, F.R.S., and took his first degree in 1911. His early career gave no indication that he was to become one of the country’s leading research chemists, and on graduation he entered the teaching profession, holding posts successively at Daventry Grammar School and at the Municipal College, Bury, Lancashire. The first world war interrupted his career; he volunteered for active service, and in 1915 was gazetted to the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment, serving with them until his demobilization in 1919. In 1917, at the battle of Messines, he was severely injured, and spent the next two years in hospital and nursing home, while surgeons struggled to save his right arm. Surgical skill, aided by Farmer’s own perseverance and courage, finally gained a substantial victory, but a substantial degree of disability remained throughout his life. The extent of this was realized by few, but it was a fact that when lecturing he found it necessary to wear an elbow support to enable him to raise his arm to write on a blackboard. In view of the delicate experimental work which he carried out, it is hard to realize that he never recovered the full use of his right hand. Incidentally, his writing remained fluent and legible, and it was not unduly difficult to decipher one of his manuscripts, even when it had been subjected to the repeated editing which always resulted from his ceaseless striving for perfection." @default.
