Jeremy Hogarth, his grandson, has passed on this obit from the British Medical Journal:
“Dr Henry Ernest King Fretz (formerly Fretz), assistant surgeon to the Weymouth and District Hospital), died at Parkstone, Dorset, on March 14 while on journey to France. He had been in poor health for the last year or two. Born in the West Indies, he received his medical education in Edinburgh, where he took the triple Scottish qualification in 1910 and proceeded F.R.C.S.Ed. in 1914. His first hospital appointments were thos of senior house-surgeon to the Norfolk and Norwich hospital and resident surgical officer to the Sunderland Infirmary. During the was he held a commission as surgeon in the Navy, and subsequently returned to the West Indies and practised in Trinidad for about six years. In 1925 he started practice in Weymouth, where he became widely popular. He joined the British Medical Association in 1923, and contributed articles to the British medical Journal in the two following years.
