THE HISTORY of SURGERY in QUEENSLAND [By C
138 THE HISTORY OF SURGERY IN QUEENSLAND [By C. A. C. LEGGETT, M.B.E., M.B., M.S., F.R.A.C.S., F.A.C.S.] (Read before a Meeting of the Society and members of the medical profession at A.M.A. House, Brisbane, on 29 August 1974.) It is my intention in this paper to deal with some aspects of surgical practice in Queensland from the time of separa tion from New South Wales in 1859 until the present time. I will talk of some of the surgeons who practised in Queens land during this century of time and will discuss in a critical fashion some of the factors which influenced the standards of surgical practice. The memory of the tragic death of Ballow at Dunwich from typhus fever in 1850 was stUl fresh in memory when the story begins. When the story ends complex operations are common place and open heart sur- l-irM Brisbane Hospital. Built as convict hospital (1827-1839). Used until 1879 when Supreme Court was built on site. From the Oxley Memorial Library collection. Dr. Leggett is a senior Brisbane surgeon who has made extensive research into local medical history. 139 gery is being carried out in Brisbane with results comparable to any obtained anywhere in Australia. I will talk of Barton and Bell, Cannan and O'Doherty in the earlier years. I wUl observe that Joseph Bancroft, scientist and naturalist, practised early neurosurgery! Special emphasis will be placed on the life and work of Sandford Jackson. This man came to Brisbane when the first glim merings of light were beginning to appear after the long night of surgical darkness.

Percival Lodge Cameron 1882 – 1940
Booklet Number 133 PERCIVAL LODGE CAMERON 1882 – 1940 This booklet remains the property of Saint Andrew’s Uniting Church. Please see a Guide if you would like a copy. ©Saint Andrew’s Uniting Church Corner Ann and Creek Streets Brisbane QLD 4000 2017 2 Gunner Percival Lodge Cameron Percival Lodge Cameron – known as Percy – was a 35 years old station manager, and married with one child, when he and his wife drove over 1,200kms from the Muttaburra district down to Brisbane for Percy to enlist in March 1917. He served in France and Belgium as a gunner in the 7th Battery, 3rd Field Artillery Brigade (FAB), was gassed and later wounded during 1918, and returned to Australia in 1919. Percy then bought a property Glen Nevis at Dalveen, north of Stanthorpe and was ‘a keen judge of sheep and wool’, an enthusiastic local cricketer, and a devotee of Scottish literature (particularly Bobbie Burns). Family background Percy was born at Muttaburra (in central west Queensland) on 1 November 1882, the third and youngest son of John and Sarah Annie (nee Lodge) Cameron. Sarah was from Moruya, NSW and had married John in 1877 in Mudgee, NSW. John Cameron - Percy’s father. 1912 3 John Cameron (1847-1914) held Kensington Downs station near Muttaburra for an extended period. He was very active in business and pastoral organisations, holding various executive positions, and was a member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly 1893-96 and 1901-08. He was also an Elder 1903-11 at Saint Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on the corner of Ann and Creek Streets in Brisbane.

The Britain and the World Conference 2016
Welcome to the Britain and the World Conference 2016 Having done our bit for Britain and the world for nine years now, we're honoured that HM Government chose simultaneously to highlight Britain's place in that world, and to increase public awareness and probably voter turnout, by scheduling the long-awaited EU Referendum on the middle day of our annual conference. On Friday we'll know whether Britain has chosen, depending on one's own disposition, to be isolated or to have re-joined the world. It feels apt, if uncommon, for a history conference to coincide, in place and time, with a historic event. As if that were not enough excitement to getting along with, this year Britain and the World takes place for the first time in London, and predictably our biggest conference ever. We hope it doesn't feel too big, and that its distinctively friendly and sociable nature is maintained. As far as the programme is concerned I'm afraid there's no other word for it than 'packed': there are sixty four panels, and nearly 200 speakers. The first panels begin at 8.30 am and the daily plenaries end at 6.30 pm, to be followed by our usual entertainments. We've tried as much as possible to avoid scheduling panels of similar appeal at the same time, but we hope you appreciate how complicated this conference has been to plan. You may wish to drop into panels for particular papers, which is another reason for our asking speakers to observe, and chairs to enforce, the twenty minute rule.

Faces of the Fallen On August 4th, 1914, Britain declared war on Germany and Australia, along with Britain’s other colonies, enthusiastically pledged their support. At the fledgling University of Queensland and the Queensland Agricultural College, Gatton, students and staff followed the ground swell of patriotism and enlisted in large numbers. Nearly four hundred students and staff from Gatton and the University of Queensland were involved in active overseas and home service during the war. Over the ensuing four years of conflict, eighty-four students and staff from both institutions lost their lives in the service of their country. From the beginning of Australia’s involvement in active combat, they paid the ultimate price; fourteen men died during our involvement on the Gallipoli peninsula, two of those on the 25th of April, with two more dying the next day. Following the withdrawal from Gallipoli to Europe the conflict exacted a greater toll on Australia, with thirteen students, three on the same day, dying during the Battle of the Somme in 1916. The next year brought little relief as six students died during the battle of Bullecourt in the early months of 1917. Later, thirteen more would perish during the Third Battle of Ypres, also known by names such as Menin Road, Polygon Wood, Broodseinde Ridge, Passchendaele and Zonnebeke. At Zonnebeke, in Belgium, five students died on the same day, 4th October 1917. The final year of the war, 1918, saw seven students die near Amiens, France, during the German spring offensive, tragically two UQ students, both Honours graduates in Classics died on the same th day, the 5 of April 1918.
