  • Sir WILLIAM MACEWEN
    Sir WILLIAM MACEWEN. Obituary. 217 ? b i t u a r \>. Sir WILLIAM MACEWEN, Glasgow. It is hard to believe that Sir William Macewen is dead. All classes of the community have been united in universal regret and a feeling of irreparable loss. His Majesty, with his unfailing good sense and thoughtfulness, sent a message to Lady Macewen in terms which well express the thoughts of the nation:? " The King much regrets to hear of the death of Sir William Macewen. His Majesty will ever gratefully remember the services rendered by him to the Royal family during this and the past reign. I am commanded to express the King's true sympathy with you and your family in your sorrow.? Stamfordham." When Sir William returned in the beginning of the year from his Australasian trip as "Ambassador of the British Medical Association," he was, and expressed himself as being, in excellent health and bright spirits, full of great talk and stories about his world tour. When it was known that he was suffering from influenza and that pneumonia had developed, friends were apprehensive, but good news spread of his satisfactory progress, and our minds were easier. But sudden serious cardiac symptoms supervened, and he died late on the evening of Saturday, 22nd March. Perhaps it is too soon to try to form a true estimate of Sir William Macewen's work, and to suggest his real place amongst the Masters of Medicine. But it is important that some account, however imperfect, of his life and work should now be given.

  • Glasgow Medical School.P65
    HISTORY THE GLASGOW MEDICAL FACULTY 1869–1892: FROM LISTER TO MACEWEN H. Conway, formerly Consultant Physician and Honorary Clinical Lecturer, University of Glasgow, and R.T. Hutcheson, formerly Secretary of the Court and Registrar, University of Glasgow William Macewen (Figure 1) graduated in Glasgow in 1869, the year his teacher, Joseph Lister (Figure 2), moved to Edinburgh; he would succeed him in the Regius Chair of Surgery in Glasgow 23 years later. Bowman was of the opinion that, in its time, no chair in any faculty of medicine was more distinguished.1 In the interval between their tenures Macewen, based in the Royal Infirmary but not a member of the University medical faculty, dominated the Glasgow medical stage to such a degree that the professors within the faculty, distinguished in their own fields and some with international reputations, were overshadowed by the great man. Their careers as academics, teachers and contributors to developments in the faculty merit examination. In the two decades after Lister’s departure, the faculty faced many changes and challenges. Some, such as the move of the University to the western edge of the city in 1870 and the opening of the Western Infirmary in 1874, had been planned for some years and led to the transfer of University clinical teaching from the Royal Infirmary to the new hospital and the foundation of two clinical chairs (medicine and surgery). Other important issues were: the gradual separation of pathology from physiology; the inauguration of the first hospital for diseases of FIGURE 1 children in 1882; the evolution of the minor specialities Sir William Macewen.
