Clarke, Andrew - 1889

Personal Gossip

When Mr. Andrew Clarke entered London hospital as an assistant he was in poor health.  “Poor Scotch beggar,” said one of the faculty, “let him have a place; he cannot possibly live more than six months.”  He is now, after these many years of eminent service, Sir Andrew Clarke, perhaps the most famous physician in England.
