Early life

A son of the Reverend Richard Hussey Loane, of Rushbrook, Queenstown,[1] by his marriage in 1859 to Jane Green,[2] Loane was born at Cork and educated at Midleton College, the Royal College, Armagh, Trinity College Dublin, where he was elected a Scholar and a gold medallist, and finally at Trinity College, Cambridge. He was admitted there as a sizar in October 1890, gained a scholarship in 1892, and graduated BA with first class honours in the Classical Tripos in 1893, proceeding to MA in 1898.[1][3]

Life and career

Loane was a schoolmaster at St Paul's School, which was then in Hammersmith, from 1893 to 1925, serving as a housemaster from 1901 to 1908.[4][1]

Loane edited and wrote a number of books, mostly for use in schools. His Longer Narrative Poems of the Nineteenth Century (1897) and A Short Handbook of Literary Terms (1900) both had multiple editions.[5]

On 27 December 1900, Loane married Edith Armitage, a daughter of the Rev. William Firth Armitage, vicar of Scotforth, Lancashire, at Scotforth.[6][2] Their daughter Alice Margaret was born at Fulham in 1902,[7] and another daughter, Joan Edith, in 1904.[8] After retiring from St Paul's, Loane settled in Stroud, Gloucestershire, where he died in 1945.[9] Joan Edith married Francis Wood Smith at St George's, Hanover Square in 1933.[10]
