Service and War Notes rcict ! We understand there will be no competitive examination for the I.M.S. in January. At the present time all men likely to enter ore joining or have joined the li.A.M.C. for work at the Front. Many of these will be free at the end of the war and many are of the stamp and qualifications required for the I.M S._, and doubtless many will then join especially if new conditions at e offered as regards pay, leave, and pensions. Most of the other grievances have vauished as we have seen in the despatches published in our September number.

  • Dr More, Having Been Accused of Irregular Practice by the College Of
    APPENDIX 1 Dr John More and the College of Physicians Dr More, having been accused of irregular practice by the College of Physicians (CPh) in 1612, was the next year charged with an offence against good taste in criticising the practice of Dr Francis Herring, a fellow of the College (FCP), and Archbishop Abbot took the opportunity to ban More from practising. The College was short of funds, however, and in 1617 the considerable sum of £20, a 'voluntary deposit' from More, induced the President, Henry Atkins, to propose conditional acceptance 'until either the King or [Privy] Councillors prohibit it'. This met with substantial resistance - More's formal admission was turned down by the Fellowship on a 15/5 vote. Even so, when Dr Arthur Dee, son of the celebrated Dr John Dee and a physician to Queen Anne, was asked by the CPh by what authority he presumed to practise, Dee replied in exasperation that 'medicine was his profession and that as he could make a business out of it, he ought to follow it', and cited More and Thomas Turner as examples of irregulars whose activities were being condoned by the College. i More continued to press the £20 offer - substantial compared to fees being paid at the time - ii and Atkins pointed out that, despite the embarrassment of Abbot's ban, his licensing 'would be pleasing to important men'. After further wrangling, in March 1619 the Fellows narrowly voted him in, and William Munk lists him as a licentiate of the College. iii Even so, 'the Registrar was careful to inscribe in full his letter averring the money to be a free gift, and More himself “ever...a servante” of the College'.

  • Part 1 – a Multifaceted Career
    WHO WAS DR JOHN MORE? RICHARD H. TURNER PART 1 – A MULTIFACETED CAREER John More, a Catholic recusant physician, has been a footnote figure - having left behind almost no writings of his own, a somewhat shadowy bit-part player on the early Stuart public stage. This essay draws on contemporary national, local, ecclesiastical, medical and family records, as well as subsequent historical and biographical material, to establish his contribution to the social, political and economic context of his times. Again and again paradox is encountered, exemplifying Shakespeare's observation that - in the seventeenth century at any rate - 'one man in his time plays many parts'. Underlying Dr More's activities and aspirations can be detected ambition to advance both his religion and his kin. Consequently he and his heirs became involved, over three generations, in numerous and contrasting fields of action – medicine, politics, commerce, military service, the Church, landholding. As with all human endeavour, the actual outcomes reflect the impact of unforeseeable events, social change, personal foibles, and mere chance. Part 2 of this essay examines this working out of his legacy – both religious and material – by his heirs, in search of a fuller answer to the question Who was Dr John More? The early Stuart recusant physician John More came from Thelwall on the north Cheshire border, just south of the river Mersey and a few miles east of Warrington. His origins, like much in his life, are obscure, in the sense of indistinct - how far so in the Hardyan sense of undistinguished is difficult to pin down. His parents, Edward More and Alice Mar(tin)scroft, appear to have been, at most, local gentry, with few if any pretensions to arms i - they were not listed as recusants, though Alice probably had recusant connections - and lacking wills or other documents to illuminate them.

Timoner Submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science on May 23, 2003, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Abstract We develop efficient techniques for the non-rigid registration of medical images by using representations that adapt to the anatomy found in such images. Images of anatomical structures typically have uniform intensity interiors and smooth boundaries. We create methods to represent such regions compactly using tetrahedra. Unlike voxel-based representations, tetrahedra can accurately describe the expected smooth surfaces of medical objects. Furthermore, the interior of such objects can be represented using a small number of tetrahedra.

  • Strays - Introduction
    Bristol & Avon Family History Society Strays - Introduction The Strays listed in this document are people born or who usually lived in the former county of Avon (Bristol, Bath, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire) but have been found (often by chance) in another county. They have been submitted to the Society by family historians for in- clusion in this document and have been taken from many different sources such as baptismal, marriage and death registers, newspapers and monumental inscriptions. Prior to the advent of the internet and its powerful search facilities, locating ancestors who had moved away from their place of birth (or where they usually lived) was an extremely difficult, if not impossible task and the Strays file offered a ray of hope to researchers whose ancestors had ‘dissappeared off the radar’. Nowadays, the internet makes it much easier to find people wherever they are located but nevertheless, the Strays file can still give a clue as to their whereabouts when you hit that ‘brickwall’. Please bear in mind that this document is a secondary source and reseachers should endeavour to verify all information used. The Society is still maintaining its Strays file and we welcome your submissions although we are not recording information from census records because they are widely available on-line. Please include as much information as possible, especially about the source document. For example, if the source is a newspaper article, please include the following: • name of the newspaper • date of its publication • page
