Abstract:
In this letter, Osler responded to a cable informing him that his friends had established a fund in his name for the purchase of books for the library of the Maryland Medical and Chirurgical Faculty (now the Maryland State Mecial Association.) Osler had done much to build up the Faculty's library holdings and to raise funds for a new building. He also hired the first professional librarian, Marcia Noyes. Osler also gave Jacobs news of the family and friends.
