Harry Emory Chubb (1880-1960)
Major Chubb died on January 8 of this year, having nearly completed 53 years of membership of the Alpine Club. He remained keenly interested in mountaineering although, as the result early in life of severe rheumatism and arthritis, he was unable to continue to climb after the First World War. The only record of his climbs is in his application form for membership of the A.C.
He was born on May 13, 1880, and educated at Wellington College, and in France. He served with the R.A.S.C. in the Near East from 1914-17 and for the remainder of the War on the Quartermaster General's Staff at the War Office. In the second war he was in the Special Constabulary, being deputy superintendent from 1942 in Hertfordshire.
He was Chairman of the well-known safe and strong room specialists and was a complete master of the craft, his advice being sought very widely. He is survived by his widow and family, to whom we express our sympathy in their loss.
