Excerpt from John Coakley Lettsom and the Foundation of the Medical Society: Being the Presidential Address Delivered Before the Medical Society of London on October 8th, 1917 I naturally turned to our Rules, the history of our Foundation, and the life of our Founder to guide me in the act Of presiding. The outstanding personality of the Medical Society is, and always must be, John Coakley Lettsom; I have found the records of his life so interesting that I trust I may be forgiven if I occupy part of this evening in trying to convey the impression I obtained of him during my researches into the duties of the Office of President.
