A translation of his memorial inscription in the college chapel reads: In memory of James Lempriere Hammond, Fellow, Tutor and Bursar of the College. He was Assessor of the Triumirate for reforming the Old Schools. He was very hard working and diligent in both his academic and his public duties. His grieving friends erected this memorial to a most agreeable companion. he died in 1880 at the age of fifty.
