Dr. Harvey Cushing '95, Moseley Professor of Surgery in the Medical School, made the presentation of a portrait of the late Edward Revere Osler, son of the famous surgeon, which was unveiled at the Tudor and Stuart Club of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. The portrait was given to the club by Lady Osler in memory of her son.
Dr. Cushing and the elder Edward Osler were old friends and had studied together in Baltimore.
