W. Drummond

W. Drummond

Administrator of the Putney Pest House Charity, 1862. Drummond is the only name on the Putney Pest House plaque given 'Esqr.' rather than 'Mr' or 'Dr'. It clearly is meant to indicate something but, according to Wikipedia, the title Esquire, by this time was pretty well meaningless, so the intention is lost.
