Peter R. Anstruther ’31

WITH THE death on Feb. 21, 1992, of Peter Anstruthcr, the class has lost a member who followed a number of interesting careers, and who was well known to 1931 football buffs who attended Dartmouth games, which in recent years were preceded by delightful brunches hosted by Peter and his late wife, Mary Virginia. In 1967 Peter took a position with the Dartmouth Library, from which he retired some time ago. Peter was born in England and earned a master's degree from Columbia.

Peter was most interested in the cooperative movement, and was a member of the Hanover Coop. He was known as "Mr. Cutting Edge," encouraging the use of raised bed gardening long before it came into vogue. Peter is survived by his late wife's brother, and by a cousin in Scotland, to whom the Class extends its sincere sympathy.
