'CloomyDean'
IngeDies At
Mind OF Aged
Churchman Was
Alert To The End

WALLINGFORD, England R -
The Very Rev. Sir William r. Inge,
SO, Church of England leader who
earned world renown as the
Gloomy Dean" of st. PaulS
Cathedral, died at his home here
today. Friends reported that he
had been suffering from bronchitis
for several weeks.
Dean Inge has said he believed
neither in heaven, hell, nor the
British Socialists who came to
power for six years after World
War II.
One thing he was particular
about was the pronunciation of his
name. He would correct offenders
with the remark: ''Inge-it rhymes
with king, not hinge"
He was the embodiment of pes
simism in the popular view. But
to academic circles of the English.
speaking world he was a distin-
guiShed classical scholar and pro"
found philosopher. His several doz-
en- publications ranged from $50
ciety in Rome Under the Caesars,
issued in 1886, to DIARY Of a
Dean" 1919.
He was dean of st. Paul'S, the
great London cathedral which is
the architectural masterpiece of
Sir Christopher Wren, from 1911 TO
1884. King George v knighted him
in 1890.
Though Dean Inge retired from
st. Paul's two decades ago, he
kept on reading and studying the
human beings about him.
His mind was alert to the end.
When he reached 90, he issued
yet another of the dour predic-
tons which gave him his nick
name, declaring: ''Wt are ap-
preaching another dark age"
He warned too, This overpop-
ulated island is no longer an i'm.
nerlal power and has come to the
end of a chapter, just as Rome
did"
When he was 81, he gave a lee
ture in Westminster Abbey which
observers termed fine and flu
ent.'
He attributed his nickname TO
the fact Il tried to tell the truth
