Letter to William Osler, February 15, 1918
Item
Letter to William Osler from C.J.S. Thompson, The Wellcome Historical Medical Museum, London, England. Interested to see his pomander cane. There is one in their museum. They are uncommon. Does not know of any literature on the subject beyond scattered references. Details on the four thieves vinegar. Does not think there were any such canes prior to 1725.
