Letter to Harvey Cushing from Francis John Shepherd, 152, Mansfield Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Shepherd confirms that Osler contracted smallpox while attending the Smallpox Hospital in Montreal. He does not think Osler held an official appointment in the smallpox wards, nor in Pathology, but probably volunteered for both positions. Shepherd draws Cushing's attention to a paper on Osler by Rogers of Denver, Colorado.

Letter to Harvey Cushing from Maude E. Abbott, Curator, Medical Museum, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Abbott responds to Cushing's request for autopsy records, which will provide information on the date of Osler's appointment as Pathologist. She has written to Dr. Shepherd regarding the E.Y. Davis [Osler's pseudonym] articles. Dr. Shepherd thinks that Osler was in charge of the smallpox wards in Montreal for two to three years, starting in 1876. She writes of her Osler Bibliography. Incl. ms. notes.

Letter to Harvey Cushing from Maude E. Abbott, Medical Museum, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Abbott is fairly certain that Osler attended the International Congress of Medicine at Philadelphia in 1876. She suggests that Cushing consult the Canada Medical & Surgical Journal, vol. v and the Boston Medical & Surgical Journal, September 14, 1876 for more information. She hopes that nothing she has done in regards to the Osler Bulletin will cast a shadow between herself and Cushing.
