Letter to William Osler, October 25, 1872

Letter to William Osler from Robert Palmer Howard, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Howard writes of Osler's intention to become an Oculist. Mr. Morgan, resident Surgeon at Moorfields, and formerly in charge of the eye-wards at Netley, wrote to Howard informing him that he would like to come to Montreal as an Oculist. If this were to happen it would seriously jeopardize Osler's hopes of making eye dissection his specialty.

Letter to William Osler, November 29, 1872

Letter to William Osler from George W. Campbell, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Campbell discusses the details of the Chair of Botany at McGill, which has been offered to Osler. There may be a three month course on Pathology with the use of a microscope added to the position. He suggests that Osler should rely on private practice to subsidize living expenses. He cannot offer a separate Chair of Pathology, as for the time being it comes under the jurisdiction of Dr. Drake.
