Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 92: July to December, 1919 If it had been in my power, with propriety, to serve Mr. Barclay and many of his friends, and mine, at Glasgow, especially in an affair of mercy, I should have instantly set about exerting my best endeavours. But in this unhappy affair which has been properly represented to the King, who I know is merciful], who wishes to save life, and who wishes likewise to have more seamen, any application from me to the Queen would in the first place be very indecent, and in the second place would be refused with disgrace to me, because it would be hurting her humanity by asking what she could not grant without interfering improperly with the King's business, and casting indirectly a reflexion on his justice and mercy. I am exceedingly sorry for this application, but it has been made, and I have the pleasure of feeling that I should have been happy to have had an opportunity of serving Mr. Barclay or his friends at Glasgow, or of taking from the distresses of a poor woman who has the very great misfortune of bringing into the world a worthless son.

Excerpt from Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 37: January to June, 1892 To ask your attention, gentlemen, to consider for a few minutes the simple subject of the treatment of burns almost calls for an apology. With the many big, and new, and valuable things that surgery has nowadays to deal with, one may well hesitate before venturing to occupy your time with a matter apparently so trivial, and withal so commonplace, as that for which I now brie y ask your indulgence. But, as has been well said, much of our surgery, for some time to come, must consist in the perfecting of details, and we cannot do better, often, than think for a moment over some old stereotyped practice, which age has so habituated and custom so indelibly stamped, and try to see whether the methods of treatment adopted are in accordance with, and subject to, those higher principles which we have learnt to advantageously ap ly along other more advanced lines of surgery.

Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 83: January to June, 1915 There is no record of hospitals for the sick, either under that or any other name, in pagan Rome; but it is to be supposed that some existed, for the first hospital of which we have any record was of considerable size, and history shows that all things grow from small beginnings: nothing springs suddenly into full development.

Excerpt from The Glasgow Medical Journal, Vol. 70: July to December, 1908 The spinal meninges are the seat of a diffuse tuberculous infection, most marked, however, below the level of the fourth dorsal segment. Above this, the anterior and posterior roots are quite healthy, while inferiorly these structures are more or less degenerate, and are more severely affected as the sacral region is approached. Throughout the whole cervical and dorsal regions of the cord, ascending degeneration of the posterior columns, cere bellar and antero-lateral ascending tracts, is demonstrable by both Marchi's and Weigert's methods of staining. At the level of the first lumbar segment, the cord is exceedingly degenerate, there remaining only a mere fringe of health myelinated fibres in the anterior commissure and around both anterior cornua. Here the white matter shows much infiltra tion with round cells and a slight degree of sclerosis. The motor cells in both anterior cornua are few in number, and many that persist show marked chromatolysis. In the fourth lumbar segment the whole of the left half of the cord, except ing a small portion of the posterior column, is occupied by a tuberculous nodule, which has displaced and distorted the cornua on the right side. The second sacral segment is more or less softened, and presents an extreme degree of degenera tion throughout. Here, then, we find a general tuberculous spinal meningitis4 Das.
