Letter to Frederick T. Gates from William Osler, Craigleigh, Rosedale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Thanks for his letter. Will ask the dean of the Faculty of Medicine to prepare a statement of the research work done at McGill in medicine. Suggests that an endowment of 500 000 $ would help them to carry on this work. They will need all the money available to rebuild a modern fire-proof building. He is sending him some books and volume I of his System of Medicine. Civilities.
Letter to John George Adami from William Osler, Craigleigh, Rosedale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He says that he wrote to Gates and mentioned that the resources available will only suffice for a modern fire-proof building and hamper the faculty in the research work they were working on. An endowment of 500 000$ would enable the School to continue this work. Thanks for the nice evening with all. Thanks for his help for William Francis. Civilities.
