Was Master of Irony During his 38 years in journalism, mostly in the fleld of dramatic criticism, Mr. Hammond became noted for the unique style in which 1 his reviews were written.

He was a master of light irony and had at his command an extensive vocabulary of obscure and scholarly words which he took pains to weave into his copy. Born in Cadiz in 1873, he was baptized Hunter Hammond, but while still a boy acquired in the town of his birth the nickname of Percy, under which he later wrote. At the age of Mr. Hammond ran away from home and went to Washington, D. where he worked for a time in the Government Printing Office, but four years later he returned to Ohio and was graduated from Franklin College.

He joined the old New York Tribune in 1921.

For a time Mr.

Hammond reviewed books for the New York Tribune, and also conducted a column called "Oddments and Reminders." He is the author of a book of essays entitled "But--Is It Art?" Mr. Hammond was a member of the Centrury, Coffee House, New York Athletic, Dutch Treat and Maidstone Country Clubs. Two of his outstanding characteristics were shyness and sensitiveness.

favorite sports were golf and tennis. Mrs. Aleck Baldwin Funeral services were held yesterday for Mrs. Phebe E. Baldwin, 64, of Arnold West Babylon.
