Note by Grace Revere Osler concerning her husband's appointment as Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford.

While Osler was at Oxford for the meeting of the British Medical Association, he wrote his wife that he could not make up his mind, as he was still hesitant to leave Baltimore. She urged him to accept the appointment at Oxford without delay. She writes that while the Canadians were proud of Osler for his new appointment, the Americans were very upset by the news.

Letter to Sir John Burdon Sanderson, June 21, 1904

Letter to Sir John Burdon Sanderson from William Osler, 1, West Franklin Street, Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Osler writes that he is flattered to be considered for the Regius Professorship of Medicine at Oxford, but is very sorry that Ritchie was passed over for the position. Osler is considering the appointment despite being very happy and well equipped in Baltimore. However, he does feel overworked and has been looking forward to easing some of his professional burdens. Still, he has reservations about the Regius Professorship, for he does not want to give up clinical practice. Additional notes by Grace Revere Osler.
