Thomas Pearson Herriot (11 May 1887 — 20 October 1949) was an English first-class cricketer and physician.
The son of David Herriot,[1] he was born at Berwick-upon-Tweed in May 1887. He was educated in Edinburgh at Fettes College, before matriculating to the University of Edinburgh to study medicine.[2] A club cricketer for Grange,[3] Edinburgh University, and Berwick, Herriot made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Scotland against the touring Indians at Galashiels in 1911.[4] He batted once in the match, with success, scoring 80 runs opening the batting in the Scottish first innings before being dismissed by Jehangir Warden.[5] In the same season, he made a single appearance in minor counties cricket for Northumberland against Norfolk in the Minor Counties Championship at Newcastle-upon-Tyne.[6]
Herriot served in the British Army during the First World War, being commissioned as a temporary lieutenant in Royal Army Medical Corps in February 1915,[7] with promotion to temporary captain following in February 1916.[8] From 1918 to 1919, he served in the Jullundur Brigade in British India,[2] where he made observations about Spanish flu.[9] Herriot relinquished his commission in October 1919, at which point he was made a full captain.[10] He returned to Edinburgh, where he worked as a tuberculosis officer at the Edinburgh City Hospital. Herriot died suddenly at Berwick-upon-Tweed in October 1949.[11]
