  • Passages of Medical History. Edinburgh Medicine from 1860
    PASSAGES OF MEDICAL HISTORY. Edinburgh Medicine from i860.* By JOHN D. COMRIE, M.D., F.R.C.P.Ed. When Syme resigned the chair of clinical surgery in 1869, Lister, who had begun the study of antiseptics in Glasgow, returned to Edinburgh as Syme's successor, and continued his work on antiseptic surgery here. His work was done in the old Royal Infirmary, for the present Infirmary had its foundation- stone laid only in 1870, and was not completed and open for patients until 29th October 1879. By this time Lister had gone to London, where he succeeded Sir William Fergusson as professor of clinical surgery in King's College in 1877. Another person who came to Edinburgh in 1869 was Sophia Jex Blake, one of the protagonists in the fight for the throwing open of the medical profession to women. Some of the professors were favourable, others were opposed. It is impossible to go into the details of the struggle now, but the dispute ended when the Universities (Scotland) Act 1889 placed women on the same footing as men with regard to graduation in medicine, and the University of Edinburgh resolved to admit women to medical graduation in October 1894. In the chair of systematic surgery Professor James Miller was succeeded (1864) by James Spence, who had been a demonstrator under Monro and who wrote a textbook, Lectures on Surgery, which formed one of the chief textbooks on this subject for many years. His mournful expression and attitude of mind gained for him among the students the name of " Dismal Jimmy." On Spence's death in 1882 he was succeeded by John Chiene as professor of surgery.

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

Bell of Islington, London has kindly presented yet another Bell family related object, additional to the Joseph Bell robes etc. This is a red wax seal impression of Benjamin Bell (1749-1806) by R. Sommervaille in a bespoke wooden box. The gift includes research work by Mr John L. B. Bell, the donor. Received here December 2011. Benjamin Bell (1749- 1806) Until the latter half of the 18th century, the influence of Edinburgh surgeons was largely confined to Scotland. Some members of the Incorporation like Archibald Pitcairn and Alexander Munro primus had established European reputations, the former in the field of medicine and the latter in anatomy . It was Benjamin Bell, regarded by many as the “father of the Edinburgh Surgical School", who was the first to establish an international reputation for Edinburgh Surgery. Working in Edinburgh in the age of the Scottish Enlightenment, Benjamin Bell was truly a son of that Enlightenment. A polymath, original thinker, and innovator, he was the first to publish a comprehensive surgical text book in the English language. Like two other sons of the Enlightenment, Allan Ramsay and Thomas Carlisle, Bell was born in Dumfriesshire. After local schooling he was apprenticed to Mr James Hill, surgeon in Dumfries, and in 1766 entered the Edinburgh Medical School.

Mary and her mother were immigrants from Ireland and were descended from landed Irish Catholic and protestant stock. They supplemented their meagre income by taking in lodgers, one of whom was Charles Doyle. In 1864 Charles's growing alcoholism led to a temporary breakup during which Arthur was domiciled at Liberton Bank with sisters of the historiographer-royal for Scotland, John Hill Burton, who influenced the young Doyle's development as historian and bibliophile. Early life and education In 1867 the Doyle family reunited and inhabited the overcrowded tenement flats at 3 Sciennes Place, Edinburgh, the poorer half of a Newington cul-de-sac.
