Excerpt from The Electrical Engineer, Vol. 7: A Weekly Journal of Electrical Engineering; From January 2, 1891, to June 26, 1891

We regret to have to record the death of Mr. W. Lant Carpenter, especially as his work was connected with the education of the youn r generation of electrical engineers. The school opened by fir. Lundy, and continued by Mrs. Lundy, has of late years been under the management of Mr. Carpenter and his colleague, Mr. Drugman. That the school has been successful under this management shows that the broad views of the managers were in accord with the requirements of the day. Owing to illness, Mr. Car panter has for many months taken no part in the manage ment, so that the work of the school will not be interfered with by his untimely decease. The late Mr. C ter and the present writer had many and long ussions upon the alterations that were introduced into the establishment up to the time when the present stafi' was organised, and while, as mightbe expected, not in agreement ugon all points, there existed no difi'erence of opimon upon t 0 main uestions under consideration. We found at all times that gift. Carpenter not only was willing to listen to suggestions, but courted them, seeking arguments for and against till thoron bly satisfied in his own mind that his conclusion was t s best. To say that Mr. Lent Carpenter was the son of his father is saying a good deal. Education owes much to the work of these two gentlemen. Dr. W. B. Carpenter reigned long at London University he was enthusiastic about deep-sea sounding and research, and his son was as enthusiastic in his work connected with universit extension.
