Letter to Henry Barton Jacobs from William Osler, 44, Avenue d' Iena, Paris, France. Details on their life in Paris. He has visited the street where Budans, Erasmus, and Linacre's friend lived, the monument to Barye. Jack Vanneck is here. Enjoyed to see the All soul days and the Fete des morts. Laid a wreath on Louis' tomb for the sake of James Jackson Jr, Bowditch and Holmes. Details on his visit to the Pere Lachaise Cemetary. Preparing a roster for the week. Glad that Friedenwalds give so much for the new building. Thanks for the hint about Ellis. Will send the Linacre lecture and Alabama Student. Comments about the letter of the chairman of his committee in Edinburgh :" such medieval rows." Had suggested a postponement of the Congress for a fortnight, not to have to cut his holiday in Italy. Civilities.
Osler, William, Sir, 1849-1919
