  • 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.

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.

  • PATRICK HERON WATSON (1832-1907)* by WILLIAM N
    AN EDINBURGH SURGEON OF THE CRIMEAN WAR- PATRICK HERON WATSON (1832-1907)* by WILLIAM N. BOOG WATSON IN March 1854 Britain and France declared war on Imperial Russia which was already at war with Turkey, and in September of that year, after an abortive campaign in Bulgaria, an expeditionary force proceeded to the Black Sea, having the Crimea as its field of operations and Constantinople as its base. In order to satisfy the need for medical officers in the campaign a large number of young doctors came forward for enrolment as assistant surgeons in the army and others volunteered to serve in civilian hospitals sent out to the eastern Mediterranean. Government reports, medical historians and writers of biography have fully detailed the failures and errors of medical administration in the Crimean war; the consequent tragedies and catastrophes; and the part played by Miss Nightingale and her ladies in nursing the sick and the wounded. A small number of regimental surgeons have chronicled their experiences with fighting units in the field, but very little has been recorded of the life and work of surgeons in the hospital service and something of interest can, therefore, be gleaned from the letters written by Patrick Heron Watson, a young Edinburgh doctor, during his army service in the years 1854 and 1855. The first part ofthis paper is based largely on those letters, which have been made available through the kindness of his grandson, Commander Patrick Haig Ferguson. The latter part of the paper is concerned with his career as a surgeon of high repute in Scotland.

  • Queen Victoria's Medical Household
    Medical History, 1982,26:307-320. QUEEN VICTORIA'S MEDICAL HOUSEHOLD by A. M. COOKE* On the 24th of May, 1819, at Kensington Palace it was announced that: Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent was safely delivered of a Princess this morning at a quarter past five o'clock. Her Royal Highness and the Princess are doing well. D. D. Davis J. Wilson DRS. DAVIS AND WILSON were the first of a long line of medical men who attended, or were appointed to attend, Queen Victoria throughout her lifetime of nearly eighty-two years. Also assisting at the birth was a midwife, Friaulein Siebold, who, although she also held a medical qualification, did not sign the bulletin. It is an interesting coincidence that the Frilulein also attended at the birth of Prince Albert. We do not know what other medical attendants Victoria had as a child or before she came to the throne, but we know the medical staff of her father and mother. When ill, doubtless she would have been attended by one of them. Date ofdeath David Daniel Davis Attended Queen 1841 James Wilson 841 Friulein Siebold ) Victoria's birth 9 William George Maton 1835 John Merriman (Apothecary) 1839 Sir Joseph de Courcy Laffan, Bt. 1848 Sir Robert Alexander Chermside 1860 Richard Blagden 1861 James Clark 1870 As a girl Victoria was kept strictly under her mother's thumb, was told that she was inexperienced and immature, and that she would require much help when she came to the throne. This is thought to have been part of a plan by her mother and her mother's Comptroller, Sir John Conroy, to make her mother Regent.
