Letter to Frederick Cheever Shattuck from William Osler. Osler has been reading works by Elisha Bartlett, W.W. Gerhard, G.C. Shattuck Jr. [F.C.'s father], and James Jackson.

Includes manuscript notes.

Letter to Frederick Cheever Shattuck from William Osler, 1, West Franklin Street, Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Osler writes of Typho-malarial fever and his opinion that the two diseases, typhoid and malaria, coexist but do not form a separate, hybrid disease. He asks Shattuck what he thinks of Durham's views about relapse. Osler is very interested in these views and is sorry that he did not get a chance to incorporate them into the last edition of his text book. He thanks Shattuck for his suggestions about gas poisoning, a highly mortal and common problem in Baltimore.
