Letter to Simon Flexner from Harvey Cushing, Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, 721 Huntington Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Cushing asks Flexner for the names of the five men called together at the Arlington Hotel in Washington in 1901 to consider the question of the establishment of an institution to promote research in medicine. Cushing is surprised that Osler was not among them. Flexner responds at bottom of page: the original five were Welch, Prudden, Holt, Herter, and Briggs.
