PROVENANCE: Dr. George Cobban Garmouth Fochabers Elgin took his medical degree from the University of Edinburgh 1851 served as Assistant Curator of the Anatomical Museum Edinburgh Univ. etc. See: Medical Directory for Scotland 1853 â€“ James McGrigor Maclagan M.D. 1830-1892 one of the sons of prominent Scottish Dr. David Maclagan 1785-1865 who served in the Napoleonic wars and was President of both the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. He served as Surgeon in Scotland to Queen Victoria. "David's youngest son James attended Edinburgh's Royal High School and University graduating MD in 1851 with a thesis on autumn crocus the source of colchicine for gout. He served in the Indian Army as an Assistant Surgeon but ill health the details of which are not recorded cut short his service. James then engaged in private practice in Cromer and Mexborough before moving into public health serving as medical officer for health for Hexham and Haltwhistle until 1890. His resignation was precipitated by a reduction in his salary from Â£300 to Â£200 per year and the suggestion that he augment this with private practice something he felt unqualified to do after so many years away from the bedside. It was as he was leaving the meeting where all of this was discussed that he fell breaking his femur. It healed but left him with a limp and much impaired health. Although he was never as well-known as his father and brothers James held many positions in the British Medical Association and the Northern Counties Association of Medical Officers of Health and was considered an authority on water supply housing and sanitation as adjudged by his 17 annual reports. Curiously his death was recorded as being caused by 'chronic cerebritis supervening on an attack of hemiplegia'." â€“ D. Doyle "The Maclagan family: six generations of service" Journal of the Royal College of Physicians Edinburgh 2010; 40:178â€“84. William Irwin, 1848-49. hardcover books
