Letter to William Pasteur from William Osler, From the Regius Professor of Medicine, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Responds regarding Frielander's paper. Refuses to have a joint session of three sections for one man. Says that he must be a megalocephalic crank.
Letter to William Osler from William Pasteur, 4, Chandos Street, London, England. Herringham wrote to say that that Friedlander only wants to give his lecture to a combination of the three sections Neurology-Psychiatry-Medicine. The former would like to have an answer by the end of the month. Herringham is asking if it would be possible to have a joint meeting with the three sections to answer him. It seems to Pasteur a large order to ask an important section like theirs, to sacrifice one fifth of its independent papers to listen to a communication of which it only knows the title.
Letter to Andrew George Little from William Osler, From the Regius Professor of Medicine, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Affirms that he could have the article ready by next February. He has got Little's manuscripts and could send them when he wished. Allbutt would write a good article, but he doubts about the necessity of having more than one person dealing with the medical side. Understood that his article was to take the form of a lecture, for which Bacon's position in the history of medicine would be very suitable. Would like to see later the prologue of the D.R.S. (De retardanda senecute). Civilities.
Letter to Leonard L. Mackall from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Postcard. Asks him when he leaves. Mentions that has been tied up with the Exams and is half dead. Asks him if he had seen Mulford.
