sion to royal and ministerial authority to extremes, and was said to be a " philosopher and a scholar, a divine and a lawyer, all combined." — His son, Paul, jurist, b. 3 Sept., 1675 ; d. in Roxbury, 21 Jan., 1751, was gi'aduated at Harvard in 1G90, and studied law at the Temple in London. He re- turned to Massachusetts in 1702 with a commission from Queen Anne as attorney-general of the prov- ince, which he held until his promotion to the bench in 1718. In 1745 he became chief justice. He represented Roxbury for several years in the legislature. He was a learned natui'alist, a fellow of the Royal society of London, and bequeathed £100 to Harvard for the support of an annual lecture to be delivered on one of the four subjects treated in succession — natural religion, the Chris- tian religion, the errors of the Roman Catholic church, and one to explain and to maintain the validity of the ordination of ministers according to the ancient custom of New England. He published essays on the natural history of America, particu- larly of New England, in the " Transactions " of the Royal society (1720-1735), and a work against the church of Rome.
DUDLEY, Thomas Underwood, P. E. bishop,
b. in Richmond, Va., 26 Sept., 1837. He was gradu-
ated at the University of Virginia in 1858, and
soon afterward became a professor in that institu-
tion. During the civil war he held a commission
in the commissary department of the Confederate
army. Having studied theology in the Virginia
theological seminary at Alexandria, he was or-
dained deacon bv Bishop Johns, 28 June, 1867,
and priest by Bishop Whittle, 26 June, 1868. While
in deacon's orders he was in charge of Harrison-
burg parish. Pa. In January, 1869, he became as-
sistant minister of Christ's church, Baltimore, Md.,
and, on the death of the rector in 1870, was elected
to the rectorship of the parish. This place he oc-
cupied at the time he was chosen to be assistant
bishop of Kentucky. He was consecrated in Christ's
church, Baltimore, 27 Jan., 1875, and, on the death
of Bishop Smith, 31 May, 1884, he became bishop
of the diocese. He received the degree of S. T. D.
from St. Mary's college in 1874, and from the Uni-
versity of the South in 1883. He has published " A

DUDLEY, William Henry, physician, b. in
Roscrea, Tipperary, Ireland, 7 Oct., 1811 ; d. in
Brooklyn, N. Y., 9' Oct., 1886. He received a clas-
sical education, and was graduated at the Royal
college of surgeons, Dublin, in 1833. In 1834 he
sailed for Jamaica, where he was elected a fellow
of King's college of physicians and surgeons, and
where he practised his profession until 1841, when
he settled in Brooklyn, N. Y. In 1842 he received
a diploma from the College of physicians and sur-
geons of New York, and in 1851 was elected cura-
tor of the New York medical college, holding the
office for several years. He was one of the found-
ers of the Long Island college hospital, the first of
its kind in this country, with which institution he
had been connected from its incorporation as a
member of the council. He also acted as its treas-
urer, its president, and as a member of the board
of regents. In fact, but for his untiring labors,
his counsel, and his generous pecuniary support, it
is doubtful whether the college hospital could have
been established or its permanence secured. In
1848 Dr. Dudley was elected a member of the New
York academy of medicine. He was also a member
of the Kings county medical and other societies.
DUDLEY, William Lofland, chemist, b. in
Covington, Ky., 16 April, 1859. He followed a spe-
cial course in chemistry and natural science at the
University of Cincinnati, after which he was dem-
onstrator of chemistry in 1879-'80, and professor
of chemistry and toxicology from 1880 till 1886 in
Miami medical college, Cincinnati. In 1886 he be-
came professor of chemistry in Vanderbilt univer-
sity, Nashville. Prof. Dudley was commissioner of
the Cincinnati industrial exposition from 1883 till
1885, and a director of the Ohio mechanics' insti-
tute from 1884 till 1886. He is a member of sev-
eral scientific societies, and received the honorary
degree of M. D. in 1885 from Miami medical col-
lege. He has made a reputation through his suc-
cess in producing iridium.' In conjunction with
John Holland, of Cincinnati, he devised a process
for obtaining this metal, and in consequence its ap-
plication in the arts has been greatly extended.
The electro-metallurgy of iridium has been princi-
pally developed through his work. He has pub-
lished scientific papers in various journals, aud
wrote the article " Iridium " in " Mineral Resources
of the United States, 1883-'4 " (Washington).
DUDLEY, William Russell, botanist, b. in
Guilford, Conn., 1 March, 1849. He was graduated

ral history iinder Agassiz on Penikese island in
1875, and in the Harvard summer school in 1876.
In 1873 he became instructor of botany at Cornell,
and in 1884 assistant professor of cryptogamic bot-
any, and also professor of botany in the Martha's
Vineyard summer institute during its sessions in
1878-'9. Prof. Dudley has contributed articles to
botanical journals and cyclopaedias, and has pub-
lished " The Cayuga Elora, Part I. : A Catalogue
of the Phsenogamia growing without Cultivation
in the Cayuga Lake Basin " (Ithaca, 1886).

serving until 1875, and in that year was made com-
missioner of patents, which office he held one year.
DUENAS, Francisco (du-ajm-yas), president
of Salvador, b. about 1830. He was educated for
the bar, and figured at an early age in the politics
of his country, on the conservative side, but, on
account of his constant opposition to the liberal
government of the president, Gerardo Barrios, was
obliged to emigrate to Guatemala. When, early
in 1863, Gen. Rafael Carrera, president of Guate-
mala, suspecting Barrios of favoring a re-establish-
ment of the Central American union, with himself
as president, declared war against Salvador, Dueiias
joined the invading army. Although Carrera was
defeated at Coatepeque, 25 Feb., he soon raised a
new army, and, after defeating a Salvadorian army
under Gen. Santiago Gonzalez at Santa Ana, 30
July, he besieged and on 26 Oct. occupied the capi-
tal," San Salvador, deposed Gen. Barrios, aud in-
stalled Duenas as provisional president. In 1865
Dueilas was elected constitutional president for the
term extending from April, 1865, to 1869, and in
the same year a revolution in favor of the exiled
Barrios broke out, San Miguel and La Union de-
claring in his favor, but his general, Cabaiias, was
routed near La Union, 29 May, and at the same time
the former, preparing to sail from Realejo to join
