Henry Montagu Butler

From LoveToKnow 1911

"HENRY MONTAGU BUTLER (1833-1918), English educationist (see 4.882), as master of Trinity, Cambridge, displayed to the full the scholastic and administrative gifts which had distinguished his period as headmaster of Harrow. His bestknown work is a volume entitled Sermons Historical and Biographical (1899), but in 1914 he published Some Leisure Hours of a Long Life, which contained excellent classical verse. He died at Cambridge Jan. 14 1918.
