Excerpt from Sketches of the Lives and Work of the Honorary Medical Staff of the Manchester Infirmary: From Its Foundation in 1752 to 1830, When It Became the Royal Infirmary This work began with the preparation of a short paper on the early teaching of medical students in Manchester, and with no thought of book-making. Interest in the subject, however, widened my enquiries, and led to the collection of notes which I now publish at the request of many friends. The present time, when the removal of the Royal Infirmary from its Piccadilly site, where it has existed for close on 150 years, is about to take place, certainly seems appropriate for giving a collected account of the lives and work of some of the Physicians and Surgeons who were on the Honorary Medical Staff of the Hospital. The period of the Hospital's existence from its foundation in 1752 to the time when it received the Royal patronage, and became the Royal Infirmary in 1830, has been chosen because information concerning the medical men who lived in it is very scattered, and difficult of access, whereas fairly complete biographies of those members of the staff appointed to the Infirmary after 1830, who are no longer alive, are to be found in the medical and lay papers.
