His wife, the former Miss Cecile Bardwell of Paris, survives, besides his mother, Mrs. Billie Beauchamp Adams, now of Arlington, his father, M.P.

He had been active in Little Theatre work, writing a number of plays produced by Paris amateurs, and was a charter member of the old Camera Club. In later years, he was active in Boy Scout leadership.
