Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Edinburgh Medical Journal, Vol. 3
Just before going to press and too late to procure notices, we learned Of the death Of Dr. P. A. Young, late Treasurer Of the Royal College Of Physicians, and Of Dr. W. A. Finlay Of Trinity, who was formerly Surgeon to Leith Hospital. Professor chiene has resigned. Although his health is considerably improved he does not feel able for work, and he has felt it his duty to the University to resign his professorship. It is difficult to realise that it is twenty seven years since, after a fierce contest (with Heron Watson, Joseph Bell and John Duncan), he was elected successor to James Spence. The many friends he has made among the thousands Of students whom he has taught in these and the preceding years will wish him renewed strength to enjoy his retirement on the peaceful links Of Barnton, where he has now made his home. E. M. J. Vol. 111. No. I. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
