Letter to Henry Mills Hurd from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Congratulations on volume 1. Mentions his interest in Galt, who wrote the first American Text-book on Medicine. Glad to see the name of his friend Workman, of whom he hopes Burgess will give a good account. Glad that he has touched the weak spot in Quebec. Curious that they should be so stupid as to retain the old system (of Medicine). They are well and busy. Mentions that the wound of shrapnel and bullets do better than the medical shocks and wrecks. The strain is terrible on the young fellows. Revere has joined the R.F.A. Thinks that his son has enough mechanical aptitude for it. Words about his son's interest in literature and books. Discussion about the war. No one in England wants peace unless at their terms. Things look more hopeful but a democracy is a blundering Cyclops at war. Love to Welch, Halsted and Kelly. Mentions Billy Sunday.
