Scope and content
A digital copy of the 1919 College matriculation photo.
Collymore was from Barbados and suffered from Tuberculosis. As a result, despite studying Law, it was decided that teaching in the country would be better for his health than working in a city so he became a teacher at Lancing College where he taught Physics and Chemistry. Two people known to be in the photograph are Eric Collymore and C. H. Gibson (Clem). Gibson went on to play cricket for England.
