Aggiungi al carrelloA nice item, casting light on the practice of the provincial medical profession in Victorian England. See Higginbottom's obituary in the British Medical Journal, 16 March 1895. There are a number of references to Higginbottom in the memoir of 1861 memoir of Marshall Hall (1790-1857) by his widow. For information about Hall, who…died the following year, see his entry in the Oxford DNB, together with that of the otologist Joseph Toynbee (1815-1866). The item is from the papers of Rev. Samuel Walker, successively of Nottingham and Liverpool. 4pp, 12mo, with a concluding fifth page, including Higginbottom's signature, written lengthwise on the first page. Bifiolium. In good condition, lightly aged. Walker is nowhere named as the recipient - the letter is addressed to 'My dear Sir' and signed 'Marshall Hall Higginbottom' - but the references to 'Mrs. Walker', and the recipient's time in Nottingham, seem conclusive. The pleasure Higghinbottom was given by receiving Walker's letter and recognizing his handwriting was mitigated by the news of his continuing indisposition, including the 'relaxation of the throat' he was suffering from when he was in Nottingham. He urges him to 'consult an eminent physician in London, and I am sure you cannot do better than have Mr Toynbee's opinion'. He considers Toynbee 'an extremely clever man', who has 'devoted himself exclusively to the study of the Ear'. As his uncle 'Dr Hall' has 'not made diseases of the Ear a distinct Study', he will not recommend Walker to his 'best attention', but he is willing to write to Toynbee, having received 'a letter from him in reference to a patient not long since'. Should Walker wish for 'a change of air', the Higginbottoms will be pleased to receive him. His 'professional engagements' have prevented him from increasing his 'study of old Divinity' since Walker was in Nottingham, but he is looking forward to doing so in future. He sends the regards of his father and 'Mrs. H. Florence, Mr & Mrs. Hall' to the recipient and 'Mrs. Walker'.

Lightly aged and worn, with small square of paper cut from he…ad, slightly affecting the address, and thin strip of paper from mount adhering to the reverse. The letter begins: 'Dear Sir, | The balloting list is of no use excepting to those who attend the Genl Meeting at Liverpool'. Although the Liverpool meeting 'might elect other Officers if it wished [] to do so would necessitate an organised not an accidental opposition. Such an opposition could not be got up unless there was a cause for it.' In the present instance he expects that 'the Balloting will prove a matter of little more than form'.

Aggiungi al carrello4pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to reverse of second leaf. The recipient is not named. The letter begins: 'My Dear Sir, | I beg to introduce my friend Mr. Walker to you as he is frequenting the Leeds Anniversary Meeting of the Association'. He presumes that the…recipient has not 'disposed of many copies' of his 'late publication': 'The demand here is steady and continued but not extensive.' He sees that the recipient was 'right' when he stated, speaking from his 'actual experience', 'that such publications are chiefly for giving and but little for sale'. His 'expectation will be more than realized' if two hundred copies of the publication sell. After 'squaring up' with the recipient, Noble will 'distribute the remainder' as 'judiciously' as he can, having regard to his own 'probable interests'. He would like to see him in Manchester, though he would find Noble 'as of erst, alone, and widowed, my family being in the Country for salutiferous purposes.' He asks to be remembered to 'Dr. Evans, whose hearty kindness, and most unexpected politeness to myself whilst in town, I never think of without a feeling of gratitude, and respect, and liking for the noble hearted fellow. Will you come? if you don't I shall really feel offended'. He feels sure that only 'something untoward' would prevent a visit. He ends by asking after 'Mrs. C.' A postscript reads: 'I see no notice in the Lancet yet. Am I indebted to you for a very favourable notice in the Argus?'

In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to reverse of second leaf. Folded twice. The letter begins: 'My dear Cleveland, | I am much obliged for referring me to the case…I speak of. I have had a somewhat similar one myself at the lung dispensary. My patient was a man who had symptoms of angina pectoris but the only manifestation of this to a bystander was a very rapid respiration & then a cessation, much as you mention.' He describes the 'only difference' between the two cases, before stating: 'It was of the paroxysm my man died & not for love or money could I obtain leave from the friends for an inspection. He refers to 'Dr Silsons case', observing: 'It was rather strange that the very day I sent my paper to the Journal, I received the card of the College of Physicians, announcing Dr Silsons course on the same subject. [] As Dr Silson will publish his lectures, I shall be backward in sending any more yet.' He refers to mutual acquaintance Metcalfe Johnson, now 'Secretary to the Scientific Institute': 'I am of opinion that he has never prospered in is profession & I am sorry for him, for I believe him to be a very good & straight forward fellow though certainly odd'. He concludes by reporting on a treatment in which Cleveland was 'formerly interested', which 'we have tried [] in two cases at Guys, & in one I think with relief'.

Aggiungi al carrelloSee Clarke's entry in the Oxford DNB. The present letter, signed 'Charles Mansfield Clarke', was written (from Caston, where Clarke's son-in-law Walter Patridge was rector) a few weeks after the death on 3 July 1856 of Clarke's wife of fifty years, Mary Anna (née Squire), by whom he had two sons and five daughters. Lady Clarke's… own husband had died a year and a half before, on 26 January 1855. 4pp, 12mo. Bifolium with mourning border. In good condition, lightly aged, with minor traces of mount on reverse of second leaf. Folded once. The letter begins: 'My dear Lady Cullum | In the course of thte Correspondence which has been entailed upon me by the late event no part has gratified me more than your honest and feeling letter, for which and for the tender of your hospitality I thank you heartily'. He explains that the 'long illness of my Dear Wife has kept me out of Society during the last three years and neither my daughter nor myself have quitted our charge'. He is happy that there was 'no suffering in the Case of our lost one: she sunk from exhaustion without the evidence of any disease'. After 'every thing at Brighton had been concluded', Clarke and his daughter Elizabeth stayed for a few days with his son at Hanwell. He is writing from 'the house of my Son in law, Rev Walter Patridge, he having lost his wife (my daughter) some years since'. He hopes to 'spend half a day with Mother' on his journey back to Brighton. He wishes he could 'pass a quiet day or two with yourself at Hardwick! but it is impossible you would I know, be as kind to me as you were to poor Westrop.' He ends with the news that he has 'let Wigginton Lodge', and that he intends Brighton to be 'my living and my resting place'.

Aggiungi al carrelloMarion Shaw, daughter of Charles Shaw of Ayr, married Charles Bell in 1811. Following the death of her husband in 1842, she lived with her brother the surgeon Alexander Shaw (1804-1890), and their house became a centre of artistic and literary society. The recipient is a former pupil of Bell's at the Hunterian School of Medicine… in Great Windmill Street, London, the surgeon Henry William Robert Davey (1798-1870), son of surgeon Henry Sallows Davey (1781-1855) of Beccles. The letter is written on the publication of 'The Letters of Sir Charles Bell, K.H., F.R.S.L. & E.: Selected from His Correspondence with his Brother George Joseph Bell' (1870). 4pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip from mount adhering to reverse of second leaf. The letter begins: 'Dear Henry Davey | When I thought of those, to whom these Memorials would be acceptable , I was not mistaken in clasing Yourself the old Pupil and friend of my dear Husband among the first. - I thank you sincerely for your kind note. - I have grieved for you and your wife, in the great sorrow that I saw had befallen you.' She continues by observing that in her 'long life' she has 'written few letters, - but of sympathy and bereavements!' Her only hope is that the Daveys 'can both accept gratefully the mercies' that are still around them, including their son. She is sorry to see from Davey's writing that he is 'a sufferer [from arthritis]'. Concerning the book she states that the letters belong to George Joseph Bell, and that '[f]rom many circumstances' connected with his family 'they have been late in appearing; | The Mass of correspondence was so large, that the selection was difficult: to refrain, or to venture, equally so.' Nevertheless she hopes that there is 'enough to show Sir Charles Bell as he was, & which I believe will be precious to The Profession.' The selection of the letters was 'by the surviving daughter of Geo Jos Bell', 'which of course I superintended, as far as possible. I have not yet recovered the task'. She concludes by stating that she is 'pretty well' in health, 'considering my more than 80 years. I go out seldom. My sister Mrs Haughton lives with me'.
