Gray

H. Gray came up to Queens' in 1875, graduating with a First in 1879. He became .Master at King's School, Ely for a year, but was also appointed a Fellow of Queens'. subsequently Dean (responsible for the discipline of the College) from 1882 to 1907, he -was then Tutor from 1912 to 24. His clerical role began as Deacon in 1880. Ordained Priest the following year, he was Chaplain at Ely from 1905 to 1924 becoming an honorary Canon of Peterborough in 1919. A keen athlete and 'muscular Christian', he was Treasurer of the Cambridge University Rugby Union EC, and President in 1895, while he remained Treasurer of the CU Athletics Club for twenty-five years up to 920. Yet, in spite of his full and active College role, seldom did a new Provincial Grand Master slide more fittingly into his distinguished office than the Revd Gray. From his Initiation in Isaac Newton during his Graduation year he remained a keen and active participant in both Town and Provincial Masonry. He reached the Chair in 1883, the year his daughter died after a serious accident. By 1915 he had been a hard working Deputy PGM for over twenty years, closely associated with all that had gone on in our Province during that time. He was as well known, to the Craft at least, as Caldwell himself, with whom he had shared so vigorous and amiable a partnership.
