Letter to Francis John Shepherd from William Osler, From the Regius Professor of Medicine, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Hopes he is better. He had written to Lafleur regarding the re-organization of the medical clinics at the M.G.H. Blackader's resignation affords an opportunity. States that he should be inspired by the situation in Toronto where the University will have the control of the clinics of the new hospital. They should do the same in McGill with the M.G.H. Asks him if it would be possible to get MacDonald's financial support. That would smooth the way. He had written to Lafleur and Blackader. Asks him to discuss with them. It is a vital moment for the school, and in this matter, McGill should be leading, not following. Civilities.
