Letter to Mabel Brewster from William Osler, Royal Victoria Hotel, Swanage, Dorset, England. They are here for rest and change, at the Isle of Purbeck where they spent two summers when Revere was young. News of Revere. The latter is full of admiration for the men who stood 48 hours of incessant pounding before getting through. Details on his battery. Delighted with the American Hospital Units, with men from Columbia, Harvard, Cleveland and Philadelphia have been with them. Opinion on the issue of the war. The final decision rests with the USA. Civilities.
Letter to Daniel Smith Lamb from William Osler, From the Regius Professor of Medicine, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Glad to have his two papers, particularly because somebody told him that he was dead. Mentions that he had a talk with Herdlicke about his South American specimens and it is the latter who told him that Lamb was still alive. Civilities.
