Contemporary half calf and marbled boards though now with a later cloth spine occasional foxing more especially at the front ex-libris with stamps and book-label on the front paste-down neat oval stamp on verso of title and in margin of last page overall a very good copy. MAGNUS FALCONAR not in Munk or Plarr was a friend and colleague of William Hewson surgeon anatomist and physiologist; in 1772 Hewson established and ran an anatomy school at 36 Craven Street where Franklin lodged in London now the Benjamin Franklin House museum. In 1998 workmen restoring this building dug up the remains of six children and four adults hidden below the home. The Times reported on 11 February 1998: 'Initial estimates are that the bones are about 200 years old and were buried at the time Franklin was living in the house which was his home from 1757 to 1762 and from 1764 to 1775. Most of the bones show signs of having been dissected sawn or cut. One skull has been drilled with several holes. Paul Knapman the Westminster Coroner said yesterday: "I cannot totally discount the possibility of a crime. There is still a possibility that I may have to hold an inquest." ' The Friends of Benjamin Franklin House noted that the bones were likely placed there by Hewson who lived in the house for two years. They also note that Franklin likely knew what Hewson was doing. Proof was demonstrated by archaeological evidence which showed liquid mercury associated with turtle bones and vermilion colouring associated with dog bones found in the deposit. Hewson had documented experimentation on the lymphatic system using both substances and animals. Hewson died on 1 May 1774 as a result of sepsis contracted whilst dissecting a cadaver. His work was continued after his death by Magnus Falconar who had married Hewson's sister Dorothy in September 1774. Falconar repeated Hewson's experiments on the spleen and thymus and as a result re-published Hewson's work on red blood cells in 1777 together with his corroboration Experimental inquiries: part the third. Containing a description of the red particles of the blood in the human subject and in other animals; with an account of the structure and offices of the lymphatic glands of the Thymus Gland and of the Spleen: being the remaining part of the observations and experiments of the late Mr. William Hewson F. R. S. and Teacher of Anatomy. By Magnus Falconar Surgeon and Teacher of Anatomy. Printed for T. Longman No. 39. Pater-Noster-Row MDCCLXXVII.

243868 September 1939; and 9 February and 28 April 1940. All from 152 HD Field Ambulance R.A.M.C. T.A. B.E.F. the first also from Dundee the second and third written from France. Mulligan’s collection of lantern slides is now part of the St Andrew’s collections and information about him is to be gleaned from its web pages. David Waterston 1871-1942 was Bute Professor of Anatomy at the University of St Andrews from 1914 to 1942. In 1913 while Professor of Anatomy at King's College London he was the first authority to debunk the Piltdown Man hoax. A total of ten pages of closely and neatly written text. In fair condition lightly ruckled and with slight loss to the edge of one page and the ink of one leaf having slightly run on removal from mount. ONE 8 September 1939: 2pp 8vo. Begins by discussing the ‘laboratory work’ which ‘Colonel Mitchell’ said he would probably get ‘when he first suggested my entering the R.A.M.C. T.A.’ He hopes that Waterston will not need him ‘at the Bute’ until the war is over and sends his regards to his family. TWO 9 February 1940: 4pp 4to. While on duty in France he gives news of his activities: ‘Our work is at present to form hospitals and turn in a hospital for German measles. I expect I shall get it myself and when I look in the mirror I shall see what my former hero has done for me - another attack of German measles! I confess that every new record of German atrocity comes as a shock to me still for Germany and the Germans were once surrounded by romance for me - as you know. In spite of the unhappiness of my last visit to Germany I have happy memories of my work at Bonn and the people whom I met there. Now they are all enemies.’ THREE 28 April 1940: 4pp 4to. He begins with personal and professional news before commenting: ‘It is very difficult to think about research work here. The Royal Society of Medicine will not send me the books - barring text-books - for one thing. However I am settling down to read for the final F.R.C.S. again and will keep up my Anatomy. I may never have the opportunity to sit the examination or to get into a surgical ward to prepare for it but at any rate I shall be able to return to St. Andrews with ideas of value for teaching purposes . Of course if war breaks out in France these plans for reading will break down but I am making them because I am afraid of losing touch with the academic work and growing stale especially if the war lasts.’ 8 September 1939; and 9 February and 28 April 1940.
