Scope and Contents
This small collection of John B. Deaver's letters received from other surgeons and physicians, 1885-1926, was probably retained for its autograph value. Prominent correspondents are John Ashhurst, Jr., Calvin Coolidge, Harvey Cushing, S. Weir Mitchell, John B. Murphy, Sir William Osler, Maurice H. Richardson, A. W. Mayo Robson, N. Senn. and G. Grey Turner. The letters concern reactions to Deaver's published writings and notes on surgical cases and matters. The letter from Calvin Coolidge, 11 November 1924, thanks Deaver for his attentions to Coolidge's son.
