JOHN'S, Nfld. (CP)--Dr, a Macpherson, a First 'orld War army physician who ft 1916 emerged from a tank of poison gas with a mask that worked against German chemi- cal warfare, died at his home Wednesday after a long illness. He was 87. "Newfoundland has lost one of her truly great sons," Pre- tier Joseph SMallwood said of Dr. Macpherson, a practising doctor from 1901 until about a year ago. The premier said the inven- tion of the anti-gas respirator by Dr. Macpherson, then a jung captain of the Newfound- id Regiment's D Company, faved "thousands of lives." Before development of an ef- fective mask--a metal and can- vas muzzle housing purifying filters--poison gas had been the scourge of Allied troops. Dr. Macpherson's son, Camp- bell, said Wednesday the inven- tion of the respirator was an undramatic part of war re- "My father was working with a team of very young doctors in the British war office. TESTED IN TANK "As each doctor developed a mask he hoped would protect the troops, the developer would enter a tank with the mask on and the gas would be pumped) in." He said that until Dr. Mac-| pherson's prototype was tested the experiment would invaria- bly end with the doctor shout- ing to be let out of the tank as the gas began to take effect. Campbell Macpherson, a for- mer lieutenant - governor of Newfoundland, said his father, also well-known for his pioneer- ing fight against smallpox in northern Quebec and Labrador, received an award from the British government in 1916 for his development of the gas mask, The British government made him a companion in the Most Distinguished Order and St. search. bought at ciation said. in the store and 29 cents from| the milkman.
