Letter to James William White from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Sorry to be detained here, but it was impossible to leave. The spirit of the country is A-1. Mentions that Grace and Revere sailed on July 30th, but returned on the same steamer. Grace is working eight hours a day on shirts etc. Revere joins the Officer's Training Corps. The big Examination Schools has been converted into an hospital for nearly 500 beds. 67 wounded Germans came in last week, fine looking fellows. Comments on the bullet wounds which are trivial, but the shrapnel ones are horrid. Sends him a lecture that he gives at military camp on the typhoid. Informs him that they are getting a group of Louvain professors, among them is Denys, the bacteriologist and his wife. They tell a gruesome tale. Asks him to send some of his reprints, White's operation and Operation per se. Jokes about the fact that he do not want the catalogue of the Bibliotheca Osleriana without his name in it. Asks him some early papers of Hayes Agnew. The complete collection will go to McGill. Civilities.
