Excerpt from the British Medical Journal, Jan. 10, 1920, p. 66-67. Tells of Osler's visit to the Virginia home of a student who had contracted typhoid.

The student's grandfather was an alcoholic and the family feared that if he knew of the books in his own attic, he would sell them off for alcohol.
