MEDICAL STUDIES
47
years in a few lines. While at Cambridge, of which
I shall speak in a separate chapter, I attended a few
lectures, chiefly by Dr. Haviland, in order to obtain
some more of the necessary certificates to qualify
me for undergoing an examination and obtaining
a doctor’s degree. After I left Cambridge, some
more lectures had still to be attended, so I was sent
for a short time as a pupil at St. George’s Hospital.
My dear father’s death then occurred, as will be
mentioned farther on, and the direction of my life
became changed.
