Dr Eric M. Bateson 1930–2013

Accustomed to achievement in spite of hardship from the earliest age, Eric was the first student from his local primary school to win a scholarship to Baines School in Poulton–Le-Fylde, the first from the school to be awarded a state scholarship to Sheffield University to study Medicine, and the first medical student at the university to be awarded a Doctorate in Medicine through completion of his MD by thesis.

Finances were then very tight for doctors during their residency and trainee radiologists received no pay, merely a bed and hot meals when working. The young Eric would often work other doctors’ shifts in order to benefit fully from both. From 1954 to 1956 he enlisted in the Royal Air Force as station medical officer at RAF Hucknall. He married in 1955 and he completed his training at the United Sheffield & Nottingham Hospitals in 1964.

In search of a greater challenge Eric, together with wife Winifred and two young children, left the United Kingdom in 1964 to take up an appointment as Consultant Radiologist and Associate Dean in the Faculty of Medicine at the University Hospital of the West Indies in Jamaica. A keen philatelist since he was a boy, Eric’s Damascene conversion from stamps to covers came on a visit to Curacao where he encountered an interesting selection on sale in the tourist shop in Willemstadt airport. For reasons of space, he limited his interest to covers bearing the issued stamps of the British West Indies from Queen Victoria to George V and soon realised that most of these would have to be ‘philatelic’. Undeterred by negative comments that these were somehow ‘unworthy’, of little greater value than that of the used stamps that they carried, Eric found that many items were, nevertheless, often very scarce and that the stories behind their ‘creation’ were also of interest. Eric was a keen member of both the British West Indies Study Circle and British Caribbean Philatelic Study Group and contributed several articles on the origins of these covers.

At the end of the 1960s, Eric and his family moved to Perth, Western Australia, and then in 1973 to Darwin in the Northern Territory only to experience the devastating arrival of Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Day, 1974. Just one hospital ward was left relatively intact and Eric stayed to assist with rebuilding the devastated services. This involved living under very difficult circumstances in a makeshift house without power or water for the next four months.

Eric was instrumental in developing the first school of radiography in the Northern Territory, followed in 1980 by the creation of a full radiology department in the new Royal Darwin Hospital. He was also prolific in his research with over 100 publications on aspects of indigenous health and other subjects.

In 1985 Eric accepted a position as Visiting Radiologist at the Maryborough Base Hospital in Queensland, providing services also to the hospitals at Hervey Bay and Gympie, and continued to serve the health of the people of Queensland right into his eighties when he lost his battle against pancreatic cancer. 27 November 2013 (First Session, Lots 1–503) Dr. E.M.

X1899 ✉ THE BLACK FRANK: 1874 (May 15) envelope at double rate from Edward Packe to his sister at the address of the private bank, Sir Samuel Scott, Bart & Co., with fine strike of the Black Frank at right, indistinct apparent despatch datestamp below (date presumed) and central ms. mark “1(-)”, backstamped by red and black London arrival datestamps of June 30. The envelope from family stationery with crest and Packe family motto “Libertas sub rege pio” on flap. Vertical fold and some slight soiling. Carried on the Black Hawk to Montevideo and from there to Liverpool on the Galicia. Barnes 4/74. Photo also on inside back cover.

Frances Catherine "Fanny" Packe, third daughter of Colonel Henry Packe of Twyford Hall, Norfolk, was born in 1832 and died a spinster in London in 1919. Little is known about her life except that a school in Guist, a neighbouring parish to Twyford, was erected and endowed in 1871 for the education of poor children in the two parishes with money donated by her brother-in-law Sir Edward Scott, and named "Miss Packe‘s School" in her honour, although the family itself had moved away on her father‘s death in 1859. Her elder brother, Captain Robert Christopher Packe (1824-1894), a former soldier, arrived on the islands in 1851 and later lived at Sulivan House in Port Stanley. Joined in 1866 by his brother Edward (1839-1909), the Packe brothers played an important role in the social life and economic development of the islands at the time and land was held in their name right up until 1983. Two other brothers, Arthur and Vere, had been involved in sheep farming in Uruguay but both had died in the 1850s. Robert was briefly acting Governor of the Falkland Islands in 1880 whereas Edward has been credited, perhaps unjustly, with shooting the last warrah (also known as the Falkland Islands Wolf, etc.), the only native land mammal, at Fox Bay in 1876. £7,000-£9,000 180 28 November 2013 (Fourth Session, Lots 1899–2342) Falkland Islands & Antarctica
