Letter to Francis John Shepherd from William Osler, Johns Hopkins Hospital, North Broadway, Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Mention of a hostile feeling between the Montreal General Hospital and the Royal Victoria Hospital. It has a bad influence among the younger men. He heard about it outside of Montreal. Suggests that the seniors should put a stop to it and make the school a rallying point. What difference does it make at which one of them a man works. Do get Armstrong, Bell and the others to take a more rational view. Glad of Edith Molson's engagement. Asking help for Dr. Abbott. Compliment on her work.
Letter to Maude E. Abbott from William Osler, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Details on the printing of the catalogue.

Enthusiastic about the catalogue, which will be of benefit to the students and also to the school (McGill), and which will be a model for other institutions. Assuring her that the faculty is interested in the work and she should have a free hand in this.
