=== Notes From Elsewhere ===
After military service (1913-1920), during which he served in England, Egypt, France and Flanders, Humphrey Silvester Evans entered the Colonial Medical Service as a Medical Officer serving in Fiji, the Far East, England and Australia.<br />At Bodleian: Diaries relating to service as Medical Officer in Fiji (ca. 1920-1942), with earlier and later diaries (1902-1963), and correspondence between Evans and his fiancee, later his wife (Phyllis Wheeler), before and during military service in the First World War.<br /><br />My great idiosyncratic friend, Dr Humphrey Silvester Evans, was Sukuna's immediate predecessor. [Years of Hope: Cambridge, Colonial Administrator in the South Seas and cricket by Philip Snow]<br /><br />In 1965 my close friend of nearly 30 years, since my first meeting in the sombre interior of Wing Zoing Wah's store at Nausori in Fiji, died. Dr Humphrey Silvester Evans was 75. He had been a splendid, rather elusive eccentric. [A time of renewal: clusters of characters, C.P. Snow and coups by Philip Snow]
