Obituary for Dr. David Hunter Dow Young
The British Medical Journal
Vol. 1, No. 4763, (Apr. 19, 1952) pp. 871

The sudden death on March 5 of Dr. DAVID HUNTER
Dow YOUNG at his home in Bury, Lancashire, has removed
from the community a general practitioner of the best
traditions. Graduating M.B., Ch.B. from the University
of Edinburgh in 1923, he filled resident house appointments
at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, St. Luke's Hospital, Bradford,
and at Grassington Sanatorium, Yorkshire, until, in
1926, he entered into partnership with Dr. Arthur Lucas
and began work in general practice in Bury. He succeeded
his principal on Dr. Lucas's retirement in the following
year and soon established a reputation as a sound family
doctor. Unfit for active service in the last war, he carried
the heavy burden of his own large practice and deputized
for several of his absent colleagues, who returned to find
that during the whole of the war he had kept the most
careful clinical notes on all of their patients. Dr. Young
was honorary secretary of the Bury Division of the B.M.A.
from 1930 to 1932 and chairman of the Division in 1943-4.
He was a member of the local medical committee and of
the Bury Infirmary hospital board, and for a year after its
inception he was a member of the Bury and Rossendale
Hospital Management Committee. He was a keen Rotarian,
and had attended the weekly luncheon on the day of his
death. His leisure hours were spent in gardening. At the
funeral service in Bury parish church, where Dr. Young
was a sidesman, a crowded congregation gave evidence of
a public mourning the loss of a good doctor, a worthy
citizen, and a willing friend, who was always ready to offer
a helping hand. Our sympathy is extended to his widow
and to his son and daughter.
