Burt (Simeon Burt), 1800-1954, M.D. Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, 1903; was Shattuck Professor of Pathological Anatomy at Harvard Medical School from 1922 to 1947; pathologist-in-chief at Peter Bent Brigham, Boston Lying-in, and Children's Hospitals in Boston, Mass., until 1947; and director of Division of Nutritional Research at Children's Hospital from 1947 until 1954. His research was on infectious diseases, vitamin deficiency, and experimental pathology. This collection features images of the lung slides created by Dr. S. Burt Wolbach at Camp Devens military base during the 1918 Influenza outbreak. When Wolbach arrived at Camp Devens there were 45,000 people and the base hospital was overwhelmed with influenza patients. Wolbach recorded twenty-eight postmortems at Camp Devens. He observed that there were two different stages of the disease: the lungs of patients who had died only a few days after the initial onset of symptoms had a different pathological profile than those who had lived ten days or longer with the illness. Wolbach published his initial findings in the April 1919 Johns Hopkins Bulletin and a more complete analysis of his research in the Archives of Internal Medicine in 1923.

Title A name given to the resource Entry on the Egyptian skull in Descriptive Catalague of the Warren Anatomical Museum Subject The topic of the resource Morton, Samuel George, 1799-1851 Craniology Egyptians Craniometry Warren Anatomical Museum Description An account of the resource This text is the official published catalogue of the Warren Anatomical Museum. The skull cast is listed in the "Third Division" of the 1870 catalogue, which is entitled "Miscellany." The catalogue's first division is entitled "Healthy" anatomy and it's second division is "morbid" or diseased anatomy. Miscellany is broken up into four series. The cast is in "Series XLI" or "National Skulls." The other three series in Miscellany are "Zoology," "Mementos," and "Phrenology." Division Three is the smallest of the three divisions, equaling 478 out of the 3681 cases (13% of the 1870 total). Series XLI is a mix of human crania and skull casts of various racial identities and ethnicities within different geographic locations. A significant number of the casts were relocated from the Boston Phrenological Society collection. The term "National Skulls" or "Nationals" is consistent throughout 19th century Boston specimen collecting. The Phrenological Society uses it in their 1835 catalogue. The Boston Society for Medical Improvement uses it in their 1848 catalogue. Individual 3180 is listed as an "Ancient Egyptian skull. Cast ; from Dr. Morton. 1849." The donor, John Collins Warren, also donated the majority of the museum's "National Skulls" collection. Pages 706 and 707 print a chart that compares the cast craniometrics with others skulls in the collection. In this analysis special attention is paid to the Occipital Region or the lower back of the Morton casts. These casts were given to represent "typical skulls," and Harvard comparative anatomist Jeffries Wyman placed great importance on the occipital region for such individuals. Warren created a methodology to acquire the measurement. Morton and Wyman were invested in such measurements in their own collections, and such measurements in general formed the cornerstone of scientific inquiry of race through craniometrics. The order of the crania in the chart is by museum catalog number. Abstract A summary of the resource.

WAM 21127-21131, 22251-22258 Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Ophthalmology Color Perception Tests Jeffries, B. Joy (Benjamin Joy), 1833-1915 Jeffries, John 1796-1876 Jeffries, John, 1745-1819 Dix, John Homer, 1813-1884 Description An account of the resource Benjamin Joy Jeffries, known as B. Joy Jeffries, was born in Boston on March 26, 1833. His father, John Jeffries (1796-1876) was a physician and his grandfather, also John Jeffries (1745-1819) had been a surgeon of the British Army during the American Revolution. B. Joy Jeffries received his A.B. from Harvard College in 1854 and his M.D. in 1857. He traveled to Vienna to study under Professors Arlt and Hebra. When he returned to Boston he opened a free dispensary with Dr. Francis P. Sprague (1834-1921) and Dr. James C. White that specialized in dermatology and ophthalmology. Over time he focused more and more on ophthalmology until it became his sole specialty. He was an ophthalmic surgeon at the Massachusetts Charitable Eye and Ear Infirmary from 1866-1902, at which point he resigned and became a consulting surgeon. Jeffries is best known for his work in the field of color blindness. He published five papers on the subject in 1878, starting with “The Incurability of Congenital Color-Blindness”. These papers were followed by his book, “Color-Blindness, its Dangers and Detection” in 1879. Other notable publications include “Observations on a Peculiar Expression of the Eyes of the Color-Blind” (1881), “Color-Names, Color-Blindness and the Education of the Color-Sense in our Schools” (1882), and “Report of Examination of 27,927 School Children for Color Blindness” (1889). Jeffries was an advocate for color blindness testing, especially for railroad employees and sailors due to safety concerns related to signals. He was a proponent of Holmgren’s test, which involved the patient matching skeins of colored yarn to determine accuracy based on color group. Jeffries died in Boston on November 21, 1915. This collection of ophthalmology instruments contains items used by B. Joy Jeffries as well as his father, John Jeffries (1796-1876), grandfather, John Jeffries (1745-1819), and the physician John Homer Dix (1813-1884). The majority of these instruments were donated by B. Joy Jeffries in 1906 for an American Medical Association exhibit curated by Dr. Townsend W. Thorndike. Jeffries made the donation for the exhibit with the intention that these objects would help found a permanent collection of historical medical instruments. The test for color-blindness was used by B. Joy Jeffries and was donated by his son in law, James Howard Means. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps.

Joy Jeffries, was born in Boston on March 26, 1833. His father, John Jeffries (1796-1876) was a physician and his grandfather, also John Jeffries (1745-1819) had been a surgeon of the British Army during the American Revolution. B. Joy Jeffries received his A.B. from Harvard College in 1854 and his M.D. in 1857. He traveled to Vienna to study under Professors Arlt and Hebra. When he returned to Boston he opened a free dispensary with Dr. Francis P. Sprague (1834-1921) and Dr. James C. White that specialized in dermatology and ophthalmology. Over time he focused more and more on ophthalmology until it became his sole specialty. He was an ophthalmic surgeon at the Massachusetts Charitable Eye and Ear Infirmary from 1866-1902, at which point he resigned and became a consulting surgeon. Jeffries is best known for his work in the field of color blindness. He published five papers on the subject in 1878, starting with “The Incurability of Congenital Color-Blindness”. These papers were followed by his book, “Color-Blindness, its Dangers and Detection” in 1879. Other notable publications include “Observations on a Peculiar Expression of the Eyes of the Color-Blind” (1881), “Color-Names, Color-Blindness and the Education of the Color-Sense in our Schools” (1882), and “Report of Examination of 27,927 School Children for Color Blindness” (1889). Jeffries was an advocate for color blindness testing, especially for railroad employees and sailors due to safety concerns related to signals. He was a proponent of Holmgren’s test, which involved the patient matching skeins of colored yarn to determine accuracy based on color group. Jeffries died in Boston on November 21, 1915. This collection of ophthalmology instruments contains items used by B. Joy Jeffries as well as his father, John Jeffries (1796-1876), grandfather, John Jeffries (1745-1819), and the physician John Homer Dix (1813-1884). The majority of these instruments were donated by B. Joy Jeffries in 1906 for an American Medical Association exhibit curated by Dr. Townsend W. Thorndike. Jeffries made the donation for the exhibit with the intention that these objects would help found a permanent collection of historical medical instruments. The test for color-blindness was used by B. Joy Jeffries and was donated by his son in law, James Howard Means. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps.

Joy Jeffries, was born in Boston on March 26, 1833. His father, John Jeffries (1796-1876) was a physician and his grandfather, also John Jeffries (1745-1819) had been a surgeon of the British Army during the American Revolution. B. Joy Jeffries received his A.B. from Harvard College in 1854 and his M.D. in 1857. He traveled to Vienna to study under Professors Arlt and Hebra. When he returned to Boston he opened a free dispensary with Dr. Francis P. Sprague (1834-1921) and Dr. James C. White that specialized in dermatology and ophthalmology. Over time he focused more and more on ophthalmology until it became his sole specialty. He was an ophthalmic surgeon at the Massachusetts Charitable Eye and Ear Infirmary from 1866-1902, at which point he resigned and became a consulting surgeon. Jeffries is best known for his work in the field of color blindness. He published five papers on the subject in 1878, starting with “The Incurability of Congenital Color-Blindness”. These papers were followed by his book, “Color-Blindness, its Dangers and Detection” in 1879. Other notable publications include “Observations on a Peculiar Expression of the Eyes of the Color-Blind” (1881), “Color-Names, Color-Blindness and the Education of the Color-Sense in our Schools” (1882), and “Report of Examination of 27,927 School Children for Color Blindness” (1889). Jeffries was an advocate for color blindness testing, especially for railroad employees and sailors due to safety concerns related to signals. He was a proponent of Holmgren’s test, which involved the patient matching skeins of colored yarn to determine accuracy based on color group. Jeffries died in Boston on November 21, 1915. This collection of ophthalmology instruments contains items used by B. Joy Jeffries as well as his father, John Jeffries (1796-1876), grandfather, John Jeffries (1745-1819), and the physician John Homer Dix (1813-1884).

Joy (Benjamin Joy), 1833-1915 Jeffries, John 1796-1876 Jeffries, John, 1745-1819 Dix, John Homer, 1813-1884 Description An account of the resource Benjamin Joy Jeffries, known as B. Joy Jeffries, was born in Boston on March 26, 1833. His father, John Jeffries (1796-1876) was a physician and his grandfather, also John Jeffries (1745-1819) had been a surgeon of the British Army during the American Revolution. B. Joy Jeffries received his A.B. from Harvard College in 1854 and his M.D. in 1857. He traveled to Vienna to study under Professors Arlt and Hebra. When he returned to Boston he opened a free dispensary with Dr. Francis P. Sprague (1834-1921) and Dr. James C. White that specialized in dermatology and ophthalmology. Over time he focused more and more on ophthalmology until it became his sole specialty. He was an ophthalmic surgeon at the Massachusetts Charitable Eye and Ear Infirmary from 1866-1902, at which point he resigned and became a consulting surgeon. Jeffries is best known for his work in the field of color blindness. He published five papers on the subject in 1878, starting with “The Incurability of Congenital Color-Blindness”. These papers were followed by his book, “Color-Blindness, its Dangers and Detection” in 1879. Other notable publications include “Observations on a Peculiar Expression of the Eyes of the Color-Blind” (1881), “Color-Names, Color-Blindness and the Education of the Color-Sense in our Schools” (1882), and “Report of Examination of 27,927 School Children for Color Blindness” (1889). Jeffries was an advocate for color blindness testing, especially for railroad employees and sailors due to safety concerns related to signals. He was a proponent of Holmgren’s test, which involved the patient matching skeins of colored yarn to determine accuracy based on color group. Jeffries died in Boston on November 21, 1915. This collection of ophthalmology instruments contains items used by B. Joy Jeffries as well as his father, John Jeffries (1796-1876), grandfather, John Jeffries (1745-1819), and the physician John Homer Dix (1813-1884). The majority of these instruments were donated by B. Joy Jeffries in 1906 for an American Medical Association exhibit curated by Dr. Townsend W. Thorndike. Jeffries made the donation for the exhibit with the intention that these objects would help found a permanent collection of historical medical instruments. The test for color-blindness was used by B. Joy Jeffries and was donated by his son in law, James Howard Means. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps.

(Edward Hickling), 1848-1926 Description An account of the resource Lloyd Thornton Brown was born in Worcester, Massachusetts on August 20, 1880, to Edwin and Marianna Brown. He was born with a club foot, which was treated through orthopedic braces, tendon surgery, and eventually osteotomy. This inspired him to join the medical profession and eventually become an osteological surgeon himself. He graduated with an A.B. from Harvard College in 1903 and an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1907. After graduating, he became a surgical intern at the Massachusetts General Hospital from 1907-1908. He then practiced at Children’s Hospital and Faulkner Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, and joined the faculty at Harvard Medical School. During this time he became an orthopedic surgeon with a specialty in chronic diseases. He was president of the Board of Directors of the Robert Breck Brigham Hospital from 1933 to 1951, at which point he retired to live a less strenuous life. While he was an intern at Massachusetts General Hospital, Brown assisted at the hospital’s first direct blood transfusion from donor to patient. Brown authored many articles throughout his lifetime, covering a wide range of topics in osteology. He wrote the book “Posture and the Pretubercular Child” in 1926. He co-authored the book “Body Mechanics in the Study and Treatment of Disease” in 1935 with Joel E. Goldthwait, Loring T. Swaim, and John G. Kuhns. Lloyd Thornton Brown died at his home in Harvard, Massachusetts on December 13, 1961. This set of child's foot braces was made between 1880-1898 by Dr. Edward Hickling Bradford for Lloyd T. Brown. The majority of the braces were used by Brown from infancy until he was six years old. The final brace was made when he was 18 and was worn after his final foot surgery.

(Edward Hickling), 1848-1926 Description An account of the resource Lloyd Thornton Brown was born in Worcester, Massachusetts on August 20, 1880, to Edwin and Marianna Brown. He was born with a club foot, which was treated through orthopedic braces, tendon surgery, and eventually osteotomy. This inspired him to join the medical profession and eventually become an osteological surgeon himself. He graduated with an A.B. from Harvard College in 1903 and an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1907. After graduating, he became a surgical intern at the Massachusetts General Hospital from 1907-1908. He then practiced at Children’s Hospital and Faulkner Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, and joined the faculty at Harvard Medical School. During this time he became an orthopedic surgeon with a specialty in chronic diseases. He was president of the Board of Directors of the Robert Breck Brigham Hospital from 1933 to 1951, at which point he retired to live a less strenuous life. While he was an intern at Massachusetts General Hospital, Brown assisted at the hospital’s first direct blood transfusion from donor to patient. Brown authored many articles throughout his lifetime, covering a wide range of topics in osteology. He wrote the book “Posture and the Pretubercular Child” in 1926. He co-authored the book “Body Mechanics in the Study and Treatment of Disease” in 1935 with Joel E. Goldthwait, Loring T. Swaim, and John G. Kuhns. Lloyd Thornton Brown died at his home in Harvard, Massachusetts on December 13, 1961. This set of child's foot braces was made between 1880-1898 by Dr. Edward Hickling Bradford for Lloyd T. Brown. The majority of the braces were used by Brown from infancy until he was six years old. The final brace was made when he was 18 and was worn after his final foot surgery.

Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Gynecology Obstetrics Boston Lying-in Hospital Richardson, William Lambert, 1842-1932 Description An account of the resource William Lambert Richardson was born in Boston on September 6, 1842, to Jeffrey Richardson (1789-1879) and Julia Lambert (Brackett) Richardson (1812-1886). He graduated with an A.B. from Harvard College in 1864 and began immediately at Harvard Medical School. After graduating with an A.M. and M.D. in 1867, he continued his education in Vienna and Dublin. Upon his return to Boston in 1868 he began to practice medicine with a focus on obstetrics. He worked at many of the major hospitals around the city, including the Massachusetts General Hospital, the Children’s Hospital, and the Boston Dispensary. In 1871 he became an instructor in Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. He was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1882 and full Professor in 1886. He served as Dean of the Medical School from 1893-1899, and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine from 1899 until his retirement in 1907. Richardson is best known for his association with the Boston Lying-In Hospital. In 1873, Richardson felt that Boston required a maternity hospital, and revived the Boston Lying-In Hospital. The institution was located in the South End. It had been incorporated as a small maternity hospital in 1832 but closed due to a lack of support in 1857. The need for maternity care was evident as soon as the hospital re-opened its doors, and the number of patients continually increased. The building was remodeled and enlarged over time under Richardson’s direction. A training school for nurses was opened in 1888. In 1922, the hospital was moved to a new location on Longwood Avenue, very close to the Harvard Medical School. Richardson retired the same year. During his tenure with the hospital, 75,000 infants were delivered under its care and 291 physicians were trained in Obstetrics. Richardson was a member of the Board of Overseers of Harvard from 1905 to 1915. He was a Fellow of The American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an Honorary Fellow of the American Gynecological Society. He was a member of the American Public Health Association and the Massachusetts Medical Society. Richardson also served for thirty years as treasurer of the Benevolent Society, an organization that assisted physicians and their families who were struggling financially. He was made Professor Emeritus at Harvard Medical School when he resigned in 1907, and President Emeritus of the Boston Lying-In Hospital in 1922. Upon his death, he endowed a Professorship of Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. Richardson died on October 20, 1932 at his home in Back Bay. This collection contains obstetric and gynecological instruments from the late 19th and early 20th century that belonged to Dr. William L. Richardson. Richardson's collection includes both diagnostic and surgical instruments. Many of the surgical instruments in this collection are destructive obstetrical instruments.

Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Gynecology Obstetrics Boston Lying-in Hospital Richardson, William Lambert, 1842-1932 Description An account of the resource William Lambert Richardson was born in Boston on September 6, 1842, to Jeffrey Richardson (1789-1879) and Julia Lambert (Brackett) Richardson (1812-1886). He graduated with an A.B. from Harvard College in 1864 and began immediately at Harvard Medical School. After graduating with an A.M. and M.D. in 1867, he continued his education in Vienna and Dublin. Upon his return to Boston in 1868 he began to practice medicine with a focus on obstetrics. He worked at many of the major hospitals around the city, including the Massachusetts General Hospital, the Children’s Hospital, and the Boston Dispensary. In 1871 he became an instructor in Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. He was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1882 and full Professor in 1886. He served as Dean of the Medical School from 1893-1899, and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine from 1899 until his retirement in 1907. Richardson is best known for his association with the Boston Lying-In Hospital. In 1873, Richardson felt that Boston required a maternity hospital, and revived the Boston Lying-In Hospital. The institution was located in the South End. It had been incorporated as a small maternity hospital in 1832 but closed due to a lack of support in 1857. The need for maternity care was evident as soon as the hospital re-opened its doors, and the number of patients continually increased. The building was remodeled and enlarged over time under Richardson’s direction. A training school for nurses was opened in 1888. In 1922, the hospital was moved to a new location on Longwood Avenue, very close to the Harvard Medical School. Richardson retired the same year. During his tenure with the hospital, 75,000 infants were delivered under its care and 291 physicians were trained in Obstetrics. Richardson was a member of the Board of Overseers of Harvard from 1905 to 1915. He was a Fellow of The American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an Honorary Fellow of the American Gynecological Society. He was a member of the American Public Health Association and the Massachusetts Medical Society. Richardson also served for thirty years as treasurer of the Benevolent Society, an organization that assisted physicians and their families who were struggling financially. He was made Professor Emeritus at Harvard Medical School when he resigned in 1907, and President Emeritus of the Boston Lying-In Hospital in 1922. Upon his death, he endowed a Professorship of Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. Richardson died on October 20, 1932 at his home in Back Bay.

Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Gynecology Obstetrics Boston Lying-in Hospital Richardson, William Lambert, 1842-1932 Description An account of the resource William Lambert Richardson was born in Boston on September 6, 1842, to Jeffrey Richardson (1789-1879) and Julia Lambert (Brackett) Richardson (1812-1886). He graduated with an A.B. from Harvard College in 1864 and began immediately at Harvard Medical School. After graduating with an A.M. and M.D. in 1867, he continued his education in Vienna and Dublin. Upon his return to Boston in 1868 he began to practice medicine with a focus on obstetrics. He worked at many of the major hospitals around the city, including the Massachusetts General Hospital, the Children’s Hospital, and the Boston Dispensary. In 1871 he became an instructor in Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. He was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1882 and full Professor in 1886. He served as Dean of the Medical School from 1893-1899, and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine from 1899 until his retirement in 1907. Richardson is best known for his association with the Boston Lying-In Hospital. In 1873, Richardson felt that Boston required a maternity hospital, and revived the Boston Lying-In Hospital. The institution was located in the South End. It had been incorporated as a small maternity hospital in 1832 but closed due to a lack of support in 1857. The need for maternity care was evident as soon as the hospital re-opened its doors, and the number of patients continually increased. The building was remodeled and enlarged over time under Richardson’s direction. A training school for nurses was opened in 1888. In 1922, the hospital was moved to a new location on Longwood Avenue, very close to the Harvard Medical School. Richardson retired the same year. During his tenure with the hospital, 75,000 infants were delivered under its care and 291 physicians were trained in Obstetrics. Richardson was a member of the Board of Overseers of Harvard from 1905 to 1915. He was a Fellow of The American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an Honorary Fellow of the American Gynecological Society. He was a member of the American Public Health Association and the Massachusetts Medical Society. Richardson also served for thirty years as treasurer of the Benevolent Society, an organization that assisted physicians and their families who were struggling financially. He was made Professor Emeritus at Harvard Medical School when he resigned in 1907, and President Emeritus of the Boston Lying-In Hospital in 1922. Upon his death, he endowed a Professorship of Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. Richardson died on October 20, 1932 at his home in Back Bay.

After graduating with an A.M. and M.D. in 1867, he continued his education in Vienna and Dublin. Upon his return to Boston in 1868 he began to practice medicine with a focus on obstetrics. He worked at many of the major hospitals around the city, including the Massachusetts General Hospital, the Children’s Hospital, and the Boston Dispensary. In 1871 he became an instructor in Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. He was promoted to Assistant Professor in 1882 and full Professor in 1886. He served as Dean of the Medical School from 1893-1899, and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine from 1899 until his retirement in 1907. Richardson is best known for his association with the Boston Lying-In Hospital. In 1873, Richardson felt that Boston required a maternity hospital, and revived the Boston Lying-In Hospital. The institution was located in the South End. It had been incorporated as a small maternity hospital in 1832 but closed due to a lack of support in 1857. The need for maternity care was evident as soon as the hospital re-opened its doors, and the number of patients continually increased. The building was remodeled and enlarged over time under Richardson’s direction. A training school for nurses was opened in 1888. In 1922, the hospital was moved to a new location on Longwood Avenue, very close to the Harvard Medical School. Richardson retired the same year. During his tenure with the hospital, 75,000 infants were delivered under its care and 291 physicians were trained in Obstetrics. Richardson was a member of the Board of Overseers of Harvard from 1905 to 1915. He was a Fellow of The American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an Honorary Fellow of the American Gynecological Society. He was a member of the American Public Health Association and the Massachusetts Medical Society. Richardson also served for thirty years as treasurer of the Benevolent Society, an organization that assisted physicians and their families who were struggling financially. He was made Professor Emeritus at Harvard Medical School when he resigned in 1907, and President Emeritus of the Boston Lying-In Hospital in 1922. Upon his death, he endowed a Professorship of Obstetrics at Harvard Medical School. Richardson died on October 20, 1932 at his home in Back Bay. This collection contains obstetric and gynecological instruments from the late 19th and early 20th century that belonged to Dr. William L. Richardson. Richardson's collection includes both diagnostic and surgical instruments. Many of the surgical instruments in this collection are destructive obstetrical instruments.

Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Otolaryngology Tonsillectomy Farlow, John Woodford, 1853-1937 Description An account of the resource John Woodford Farlow was born in Boston in 1853 to John Smith Farlow (1817-1890), a prominent Boston merchant, and Nancy Wight (Blanchard) Farlow (1816-1895). He received an A.B. from Harvard College in 1874, and then an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1877. Farlow completed an internship at the Boston Lying-In Hospital and then traveled Europe for two years after receiving his degree. He began a general practice in Boston in 1880, but soon began to specialize in the field of laryngology. He quickly became associated with the Boston Dispensary, the Staniford Street Dispensary, and the Free Dispensary for Diseases of Women. He joined the Harvard Medical School faculty in 1892, where he served as Clinical Instructor of Laryngology until 1906. During this time he became associated with the Carney Hospital, where he founded a department for Diseases of the Nose and Throat, the Boston City Hospital, and the Free Home for Consumptives. Towards the end of his career, he became the Consulting Physician for Diseases of the Throat at Boston Dispensary. He retired from practicing medicine in 1916. Farlow invented and improved upon several laryngology instruments during his career, including the Farlow snare and Farlow punch in 1895. He was president of the American Laryngological Association in 1902. He also served as president of the Massachusetts Library Association and the Medical Historical Club of Boston. He was appointed librarian of the Boston Medical Library in 1905 but acted primarily in an assistant role until his retirement from practice in 1916. He then dedicated most of his time to the Boston Medical Library. In 1918 he published “The History of the Boston Medical Library”, and wrote the majority of “The Fiftieth Anniversary of the Boston Medical Library” in 1926. Farlow died of an illness at his summer home in Manchester in 1937. This collection of laryngology instruments was owned and used by Dr. John Woodford Farlow. Most of the objects in this collection were used for tonsillectomy, which was a very common procedure at the time that Farlow was working. The collection includes a few instruments that Farlow designed himself. Still Image A static visual representation. Examples of still images are: paintings, drawings, graphic designs, plans and maps.

He received an A.B. from Harvard College in 1874, and then an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1877. Farlow completed an internship at the Boston Lying-In Hospital and then traveled Europe for two years after receiving his degree. He began a general practice in Boston in 1880, but soon began to specialize in the field of laryngology. He quickly became associated with the Boston Dispensary, the Staniford Street Dispensary, and the Free Dispensary for Diseases of Women. He joined the Harvard Medical School faculty in 1892, where he served as Clinical Instructor of Laryngology until 1906. During this time he became associated with the Carney Hospital, where he founded a department for Diseases of the Nose and Throat, the Boston City Hospital, and the Free Home for Consumptives. Towards the end of his career, he became the Consulting Physician for Diseases of the Throat at Boston Dispensary. He retired from practicing medicine in 1916. Farlow invented and improved upon several laryngology instruments during his career, including the Farlow snare and Farlow punch in 1895. He was president of the American Laryngological Association in 1902. He also served as president of the Massachusetts Library Association and the Medical Historical Club of Boston. He was appointed librarian of the Boston Medical Library in 1905 but acted primarily in an assistant role until his retirement from practice in 1916. He then dedicated most of his time to the Boston Medical Library. In 1918 he published “The History of the Boston Medical Library”, and wrote the majority of “The Fiftieth Anniversary of the Boston Medical Library” in 1926. Farlow died of an illness at his summer home in Manchester in 1937. This collection of laryngology instruments was owned and used by Dr. John Woodford Farlow. Most of the objects in this collection were used for tonsillectomy, which was a very common procedure at the time that Farlow was working.

He quickly became associated with the Boston Dispensary, the Staniford Street Dispensary, and the Free Dispensary for Diseases of Women. He joined the Harvard Medical School faculty in 1892, where he served as Clinical Instructor of Laryngology until 1906. During this time he became associated with the Carney Hospital, where he founded a department for Diseases of the Nose and Throat, the Boston City Hospital, and the Free Home for Consumptives.

Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Otolaryngology Tonsillectomy Farlow, John Woodford, 1853-1937 Description An account of the resource John Woodford Farlow was born in Boston in 1853 to John Smith Farlow (1817-1890), a prominent Boston merchant, and Nancy Wight (Blanchard) Farlow (1816-1895). He received an A.B. from Harvard College in 1874, and then an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1877. Farlow completed an internship at the Boston Lying-In Hospital and then traveled Europe for two years after receiving his degree. He began a general practice in Boston in 1880, but soon began to specialize in the field of laryngology. He quickly became associated with the Boston Dispensary, the Staniford Street Dispensary, and the Free Dispensary for Diseases of Women. He joined the Harvard Medical School faculty in 1892, where he served as Clinical Instructor of Laryngology until 1906. During this time he became associated with the Carney Hospital, where he founded a department for Diseases of the Nose and Throat, the Boston City Hospital, and the Free Home for Consumptives. Towards the end of his career, he became the Consulting Physician for Diseases of the Throat at Boston Dispensary. He retired from practicing medicine in 1916. Farlow invented and improved upon several laryngology instruments during his career, including the Farlow snare and Farlow punch in 1895. He was president of the American Laryngological Association in 1902. He also served as president of the Massachusetts Library Association and the Medical Historical Club of Boston. He was appointed librarian of the Boston Medical Library in 1905 but acted primarily in an assistant role until his retirement from practice in 1916. He then dedicated most of his time to the Boston Medical Library. In 1918 he published “The History of the Boston Medical Library”, and wrote the majority of “The Fiftieth Anniversary of the Boston Medical Library” in 1926. Farlow died of an illness at his summer home in Manchester in 1937. This collection of laryngology instruments was owned and used by Dr. John Woodford Farlow. Most of the objects in this collection were used for tonsillectomy, which was a very common procedure at the time that Farlow was working.

His father, Joshua Green, was a physician. His mother, Eliza Lawrence Green, was a descendant of the Lawrence family, who were early settlers to the Boston area and benefactors of Lawrence Academy, where Green attended school. He graduated from Harvard in 1851. He then spent two years attending medical lectures at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Green then returned to Boston and graduated with a Medical Degree from Harvard Medical School in 1854. Green began his medical business shortly after graduating. In 1858, Governor Banks appointed Green to surgeon of the 3rd Massachusetts Militia Regiment. Green became the first Massachusetts physician to enter the Army medical service when he was commissioned assistant surgeon of the 1st Massachusetts Volunteer Regiment in 1861. Later that year he was promoted to surgeon of the 24th Massachusetts Regiment. When his Army career ended in 1865, Green returned to Boston, where he became superintendent of the Boston Dispensary until 1872. He served as City Physician of Boston from 1871 to 1880. He was elected Mayor of Boston in 1882, and served one term, after which he campaigned again but was not reelected. Green served as a trustee for many local societies, including the Peabody Education Fund and the Boston Public Library, where he spent one year as a librarian in 1877. He also served on the Boston School Board. In 1878, Congress appointed him to a board of experts researching yellow fever. Green was a fellow of the Massachusetts Medical Society and delivered their centennial address in 1881. Green received an honorary LL.D. degree from the University of Nashville and the Decoration of Merit from Venezuela. Medicine was not Green’s only interest. From 1868 until his death, Green served as the librarian for the Massachusetts Historical Society. During this time their collection grew from 8,000 volumes to 50,000. He wrote frequently on the subject of local history. His publications about his hometown of Groton include “The Early Records of Groton, Mass., 1662-1677” (1880), “Groton During the Witchcraft Times” (1883), and “The Boundary-Lines of Old Groton” (1885). Samuel Abbott Green died on December 5, 1918. This collection contains medical instruments that belonged to Dr. Samuel Abbott Green and his father, Dr. Joshua Green. Many of the items in this collection were likely used by Dr. Samuel A. Green when he was a surgeon during the civil war. The collection also contains a pair of spectacles from the early 18th century.

WAM 20098, 21001, 21002, 21088, 21093, 21095-21097, 22200-22209, 22247. Subject The topic of the resource Surgical Instruments Thermometers Stethoscopes Syringes Otolaryngology Polygraph Machine Shattuck, Frederick Cheever, 1847-1929 Shattuck, George Cheever, 1879-1972 Description An account of the resource Frederick Cheever Shattuck was born on November 1, 1847, in Boston, Massachusetts. He came from a long line of doctors, including his father, George Cheyne Shattuck, Jr. (1813-1893) and his grandfather George Cheyne Shattuck (1783-1854). This lineage dates back to William Shattuck (1622-1672), who was an early Puritan settler in Watertown. After completing his medical degree at Harvard Medical School in 1873, Frederick Cheever Shattuck traveled across Europe to visit major hospitals and attend lectures. Upon his return to Boston in 1875 he set up a private practice, but did not see immediate success. He joined the Harvard Medical School faculty in 1879, where he was appointed Clinical Instructor in Auscultation and Percussion. He became the Jackson Professor of Clinical Medicine in 1888 and held the position until his retirement in 1912. During this time, Shattuck also became Chief of Medical Staff at Massachusetts General Hospital. After his retirement he joined the Board of Overseers of Harvard College. He served on the Board from 1913 to 1919. Shattuck was a member of the Faculty Committee on the Course of Study from 1898-1909. While on this committee, he saw deficits in both the lack of consistency in visiting physician rotations at the local hospitals and the lack of consistency and communication between the Medical School’s departments of Clinical Medicine and the Theory and Practice of Physic. His work with the Committee on these problems led to a massive shift in how Harvard Medical School organized its programs and interacted with the local hospitals, which resulted in the affiliate hospital system that the school has today. When the Medical School proposed establishing a Department of Tropical Medicine in 1913, Shattuck quickly raised the funds. Before the end of the department’s five year trial period, he endowed the Chair of Tropical Medicine himself to ensure the permanence of the department. In 1916, Shattuck collected a fund to promote public health initiatives amongst workers. He became the Chairman of the Committee on Industrial Hygiene, which distributed the fund. The success of this endeavor had a large influence on the establishment of the Harvard School of Public Health. Frederick Cheever Shattuck died at his home in Brookline on January 11, 1929. George Cheever Shattuck was born October 12, 1879. After completing his medical degree at Harvard Medical School in 1905, Shattuck embarked on a world tour and ended up stopping for several months to work with Richard P. Strong (1872-1948) at the latter’s laboratory in the Philippines. After his time in the Philippines, Shattuck undertook additional clinical training in Vienna, Austria, and then returned in 1908 to Harvard Medical School. When the Department of Tropical Medicine was formed at the Medical School in 1913, Shattuck was recruited as a faculty member. In 1916, the American Red Cross organized a medical commission to travel to Serbia to assist Serbian physicians in controlling an epidemic of typhus. Shattuck, Richard P. Strong, Hans Zinsser, and A. Watson Sellards were all members. Shattuck was responsible for the examination of post-mortem evidence and performed numerous autopsies, collating the data for the commission’s final report, published in 1920. From 1917 to 1919, Shattuck served with the Harvard Surgical Unit embedded with the British Expeditionary Force; after the armistice that ended World War I, he served in Switzerland as General Medical Secretary of the League of Red Cross Societies. Shattuck returned to Boston in 1921 as assistant professor of tropical medicine at Harvard Medical School and worked to establish a service for tropical medicine at Boston City Hospital. In 1924-1925, Shattuck accompanied the Hamilton Rice expedition to the upper Amazon in Brazil. He co-led a medical survey expedition with Richard P. Strong to Liberia and the Belgian Congo in 1926-1927. Between 1929 and 1932, Shattuck led three expeditions funded by the Carnegie Institute to identify health problems in the Yucatan and Guatemala. Shattuck was elected president of the American Society of Tropical Medicine in 1927; the Society awarded him the Theobald Smith Medal in 1954 and the Richard Pearson Strong Medal in 1962. He was also a member of the American Academy of Tropical Medicine and the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. Shattuck died in 1972. The majority of these instruments in this collection were removed from the office of Frederick Cheever Shattuck shortly after his death in 1929. This included a number of monaural stethoscopes that Cheever had collected. George Cheever Shattuck added a few of his own objects to this donation, including a polygraph machine and a dry cell battery. Still Image A static visual representation.

During this time, Shattuck also became Chief of Medical Staff at Massachusetts General Hospital. After his retirement he joined the Board of Overseers of Harvard College. He served on the Board from 1913 to 1919. Shattuck was a member of the Faculty Committee on the Course of Study from 1898-1909. While on this committee, he saw deficits in both the lack of consistency in visiting physician rotations at the local hospitals and the lack of consistency and communication between the Medical School’s departments of Clinical Medicine and the Theory and Practice of Physic. His work with the Committee on these problems led to a massive shift in how Harvard Medical School organized its programs and interacted with the local hospitals, which resulted in the affiliate hospital system that the school has today. When the Medical School proposed establishing a Department of Tropical Medicine in 1913, Shattuck quickly raised the funds. Before the end of the department’s five year trial period, he endowed the Chair of Tropical Medicine himself to ensure the permanence of the department. In 1916, Shattuck collected a fund to promote public health initiatives amongst workers. He became the Chairman of the Committee on Industrial Hygiene, which distributed the fund. The success of this endeavor had a large influence on the establishment of the Harvard School of Public Health. Frederick Cheever Shattuck died at his home in Brookline on January 11, 1929. George Cheever Shattuck was born October 12, 1879. After completing his medical degree at Harvard Medical School in 1905, Shattuck embarked on a world tour and ended up stopping for several months to work with Richard P. Strong (1872-1948) at the latter’s laboratory in the Philippines. After his time in the Philippines, Shattuck undertook additional clinical training in Vienna, Austria, and then returned in 1908 to Harvard Medical School. When the Department of Tropical Medicine was formed at the Medical School in 1913, Shattuck was recruited as a faculty member. In 1916, the American Red Cross organized a medical commission to travel to Serbia to assist Serbian physicians in controlling an epidemic of typhus. Shattuck, Richard P. Strong, Hans Zinsser, and A. Watson Sellards were all members. Shattuck was responsible for the examination of post-mortem evidence and performed numerous autopsies, collating the data for the commission’s final report, published in 1920. From 1917 to 1919, Shattuck served with the Harvard Surgical Unit embedded with the British Expeditionary Force; after the armistice that ended World War I, he served in Switzerland as General Medical Secretary of the League of Red Cross Societies. Shattuck returned to Boston in 1921 as assistant professor of tropical medicine at Harvard Medical School and worked to establish a service for tropical medicine at Boston City Hospital. In 1924-1925, Shattuck accompanied the Hamilton Rice expedition to the upper Amazon in Brazil. He co-led a medical survey expedition with Richard P. Strong to Liberia and the Belgian Congo in 1926-1927. Between 1929 and 1932, Shattuck led three expeditions funded by the Carnegie Institute to identify health problems in the Yucatan and Guatemala. Shattuck was elected president of the American Society of Tropical Medicine in 1927; the Society awarded him the Theobald Smith Medal in 1954 and the Richard Pearson Strong Medal in 1962. He was also a member of the American Academy of Tropical Medicine and the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. Shattuck died in 1972. The majority of these instruments in this collection were removed from the office of Frederick Cheever Shattuck shortly after his death in 1929. This included a number of monaural stethoscopes that Cheever had collected. George Cheever Shattuck added a few of his own objects to this donation, including a polygraph machine and a dry cell battery. Still Image A static visual representation.

He came from a long line of doctors, including his father, George Cheyne Shattuck, Jr. (1813-1893) and his grandfather George Cheyne Shattuck (1783-1854). This lineage dates back to William Shattuck (1622-1672), who was an early Puritan settler in Watertown. After completing his medical degree at Harvard Medical School in 1873, Frederick Cheever Shattuck traveled across Europe to visit major hospitals and attend lectures. Upon his return to Boston in 1875 he set up a private practice, but did not see immediate success.
