Letter to James William White, May 16, 1910

Letter to James William White from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. He was under the impression that he had written him from the Athenaeum Club after seeing Henry James. The latter is deeply depressed, his nephew Henry James Junior stayed with him for a while, and now William James is there. There are not good accounts. Extract from a letter William James sent where he describes the state of mind of Henry James. Skinner has recommended changing his mind and that Henry James friends work in that direction. Comments on Skinner. Osler's opinion on the matter is that the disease is relatively superficial and the remissions seem independent of assignable outward influences. Mentions that Henry James had written to him 18 months ago about anginoid symptoms, which had disappeared. Hopes that White will visit him to cheer him up.

Letter to James William White, September 16, 1910

Letter to James William White, September 15, 1910

Letter to James William White from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. States that it was not von Sch who told him that White had thoughts of resigning, he heard it from one or two young surgeons (not Fraser) when they were in Oxford a few months ago. Would deplore any rumpus after such a long and devoted service. His opinion is that even though he is popular with the class, for a Professor of Surgery not to operate and not to be in the arena with the younger men, is an anomaly that no doubt is what some of them feel. Enjoyed seeing him and his wife yesterday. Civilities. P.S. Asks news of Mrs. Abbey who has a curious condition.
